McNeil Hits River to Nearly Double

Jim Bucci opened for a raise from the button and Calen McNeil called from the big blind. The flop came and both players checked. The turn was the and McNeil check-called a bet from Bucci, leaving himself with not much behind. Both players would check the river and McNeil would turn over for a river two pair, queens and fives. That would be good enough to give him the pot and keep his dreams of winning back-to-back titles in this event alive. He stood up, and took a quick bow for the benefit of his rail.
