It's Nearly Time Out For McDonald

[user169505]

Mike McDonald is in a whole lot of trouble

With ninety-five players remaining we realise that there is a long way to go, but Jeremy Quehen has just given himself a great chance to extend his deep run. As always, with any success story there is somebody who would rather things took a different course, and this time that man is Mike 'Timex' McDonald.

We caught the action on the flop and the pot was already enormous. It was heads-up, with Timex in the blinds, and he checked to Quehen when he saw the {8-Spades} {6-Clubs} {4-Clubs} flop. Quehen pushed 40,500 towards McDonald and the pair stared directly into each other's eyes until Timex announced all-in - so softly - the dealer had to ask him twice. Quehen called and it was bad news.

McDonald

The {5-Hearts} and {J-Hearts} sent McDonald's eyes to the roof of the Amazon room and the majority of his chips over to Quehen. McDonald was left with 30,000 and we believe Quehen has around 350,000 (his stack was still dirty when we left).
