Macdonald Gets Some Back

Level 4 : 100/200, 200 ante

Norm Macdonald had been off to a great start before being chopped back down to about starting stack. In a recent pot aginst Pierre Neuville, Macdonald opened to 400 from late position and was called by the button, Neuville in the small blind, and the player in the big blind.

The flop was the {9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} and the action checked to Macdonald who bet 1,000 getting rid of only the player in the big blind. The {10-Hearts} hit the turn and Neuville check-called a bet of 2,000 from Macdonald after the player on the button folded.

The {10-Diamonds} completed the board on the river and Neuville check-folded when Macdonald fired 5,000 into the pot.
