Big Stax 500 (Day 1B): MacKinnon Picks Up Big Pot To End Level

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/200)
Total Day 1B Entries: 166

DJ MacKinnon (East Amherst, NY)
The final hand of Level 10 at Table 45 would be a good one for DJ MacKinnon (East Amherst, NY), as he is peaking for the day.  We would approach the table just as the dealer was ready to fan out the flop, with six players calling 2,800 going in.  The board would come out 7♣ 2 10♠, and there would be two checks to MacKinnon.  He put out a bet of 8,200, with Lyle Diamond calling next to to act.  An unknown player would then shove for 23,000, with players folding back to DJ.

After asking for the amount, MacKinnon put out the chips for a call, with Lyle coming along as well.  The turn brought the 6♠, and DJ bet 20,000, pushing Diamond out of the pot.  He then turned over K♠ K, in good shape against the K10♣ of his opponent.  The river ran out without a ten, and MacKinnon picked up the pot, chipping up to 115,000.
