Big Stacks Collide as McCann Gets Paid

Around 165,000 was in the middle on a completed board of KdTd5c2d5d, in a hand between Adrian Thorne in the cutoff and JP McCann in the small blind, the top two at the start of the final table.

 

McCann led out on the river with a bet of 60,000, and after some thought, Thorne made the call, albeit seemingly reluctantly.

 

McCann tabled Ad9d for the turned nut flush, and Thorne tapped the table and mucked his hand.

 

The players have now been sent on a 15-minute break.

 

JP McCann – 615,800 (123 bb)
Adrian Thorne – 296,000 (59 bb)
