Mike "Timex" McDonald Eliminated in 5th Place (�115,400)
Dmitry Yurasov opened for 80,000 under the gun only to have Mike "Timex" McDonald three-bet all in for 740,000 from the cutoff. The button folded, as did both blinds, and Yurasov asked for a count before making the call.
Yurasov:
McDonald:
McDonald got it in good, and according to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, McDonald had a 54.45% chance of surviving the hand while Yurasov would come from behind 45.17% of the time. Unfortunately for McDonald, this was one of those times as the flop came down .
Yurasov paired his ace to become a massive 91.21% favorite, and McDonald was left in need of a six, which would come a mere 8.78% of the time. The turn was not it, and neither was the river. "Good game guys," McDonald said before taking his leave in fifth place for �115,400.
Ended up coming 5th in the HR for 115�. Ran super well all tourney and I don't think I've ever been this pleased with a non-win in my careerFollow @MikeMcDonald89
