: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Mike McDonald was all in and in trouble with 
against Hossein Ensan's 
.
The 
flop teased McDonald with a gutshot but the 
was without doubt the most entertaining card in the deck. It made McDonald the nut straight but gave Ensan a flush draw and a gutshot to a bigger straight. The river was the 
and McDonald doubled up.
Barely a couple of hands later and the two got into another raising war, McDonald five-betting all in and Ensan snap-folding as a result.
