Montreal Nationals vs. San Francisco Rush

Day 1 Completed

Mike McDonald Sends Montreal Nationals Through to Americas Final

Mike McDonald just eliminated Jonathan Jaffe and the San Francisco Rush from the GPL Playoffs.

Despite taking a 2-0 lead to start the day, the Rush lost four of the next five matches. In the deciding match, McDonald took a big lead after flopping the nuts against the pair of Jaffe. Shortly after that, the two players got all in preflop, both holding an ace. McDonald had the better ace and won the hand, leaving Jaffe with just one big blind.

Jaffe then went on to double up three times, coming from behind before ultimately losing when McDonald shoved all in with {j-Clubs}{6-Clubs} against Jaffe's ten big blinds. Jaffe had {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}, but ended up busting when McDonald flopped two pair. The turn card was the perfect card for a sweat, but it wasn't to be as the Montreal Nationals booked their seat in the Americas final. They will face the winner of the next match, either the Los Angeles Sunset or the Sao Paulo Mets.

McDonald Takes a Commanding Lead in Game 7

Mike McDonald started the match with a 30,000 lead thanks to coming in as part of the top seeded Montreal Nationals, and has added another 40,000 or so on top of that after he flopped the nuts against Jonathan Jaffe in the deciding game of the series.

McDonald had {6-Spades}{7-Spades} against the {5-Hearts}{3-Hearts} of Jaffe. McDonald flopped the nuts and Jaffe flopped a pair.

"Did you flop the nuts?" Jaffe asked after McDonald called his turn bet. By the end of the hand, Jaffe helped provide one of the most entertaining moments from the Playoffs so far.

Game 7: Mike McDonald v. Jonathan Jaffe

Game seven is a rematch of Game 1, with Mike McDonald playing against Jonathan Jaffe. There is one difference between this match and the previous one, McDonald will now start with the extra 30,000 in his stack. He didn't get the bonus his team earned for being the #1 seed in his first match against Jaffe because he was filling in for his team mate, Pascal Lefrancois.

This time he has the chip lead to start, and the series on the line.

The series is now tied and the Nationals and San Francisco Rush are heading to game seven.

The series is now tied after Ladouceur got another ace-high in against a big hand. Jaka had pocket queens and called with 12 big blind left.
