Huge Pot Between Charles Harvey and Sam MacDonald

Sam MacDonald raises on the button making it 10,000 to play and Charles Harvey three-bets to 40,000 from the big blind. MacDonald makes the call and they share a flop of [Qd] [Th] [2h]. Harvey leads for 50,000 and MacDonald stuns everyone by moving all-in. Harvey makes the call and we have a monstrous pot with Harvey at risk of elimination. 

The dealer asks the players to turn their cards over and Harvey is ahead with [Ah] [Ad] but MacDonald is not that far behind with [Qh] [4h]. The turn is the [Ts] and the river [7d] and Harvey moves with touching distance of our chip leader David Shallow. Young MacDonald is reduced to 310,000.

Harvey ~ 600,000
MacDonald ~ 310,000
