Not the End for Menendez
Rafael Pardo was under the gun and opened for 155,000, which Stuart McDonald three-bet to 365,000 from the cutoff. Then, after the button folded, Julian Menendez moved all in from the small blind for 760,000. Pardo wasted little time in getting out of the way, which wasn��t what McDonald was hoping for as he stated he��d rather of him called. Instead, McDonald ended up making the call.
Showdown
McDonald: 
Menendez: 
It was a bad spot for McDonald, but the 
flop gave him a straight draw to any queen. However, the 
turn quickly put an end to any hope of that as Menendez filled up. The meaningless 
was revealed on the river and Menedez doubled to 1,815,000.
