Mcdiarmid Finds a Jack to Triple Up
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Zachary Mcdiarmid raised from under the gun all in for 43,000. He was called by Elvyn Bello in early position, before Stone Malick three-bet all in for his stack of 650,000 from the cutoff. Once it folded back to Bello he got out of the way to leave the players heads up.
Zachary Mcdiarmid: A?J? 
Stone Malick: A?K?
Mcdiarmid was dominated by the ace-king of Malick, but after the board ran out J?Q?8?2?3? he improved to a pair of jacks to triple up.
