Pardo-ned on the River

Rafael Pardo shipped his stack of 445,000 from middle position and was quickly called by Stuart McDonald in the big blind.
Showdown
McDonald:
Pardo:
Pardo was behind and needed some help, but he didn't get it on the flop. The
was just as useless to Pardo, but the
river was just what he needed. His rail erupted in cheers while McDonald slumped back in his chair silently.
