and Galfond piled for 215,000. Abduljabbar called and McKenna mucked 
.
Phil Galfond: 
Ali Abduljabbar: 
The 
gave Abduljabbar two pair and the nut low but the 
river made aces up for Galfond.
A few hands later, Marco Johnson raised to 120,000 early and was called by McKenna and Galfond, who was in the big blind. Galfond led for pot on 
and only McKenna continued. Galfond put the rest in on the 
turn.
"I have it," McKenna announced, snap-calling and showing 
for the nuts.
Galfond had 
but he got the 
on the river to make a low and chop.
