Caldwell Bluffs River, Fails

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Kirk Caldwell completed in the small blind, Marc McLaughlin checked his option, and the flop came down {6-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}. Caldwell check-called 100,000, and the turn was the {5-Clubs}. Caldwell checked, McLaughlin fired 210,000, and Caldwell called.

The river was the {3-Hearts}, and Caldwell led for the first time. The bet was 475,000, and after a pause for thought, McLaughlin called. The Montreal native opened up {a-Clubs}{6-Spades} for nines and sixes, Caldwell mucked, and McLaughlin raked in the pot.
