Mike McDonald Eliminated in 2nd Place (AU$1,592,500)

• Nível 14: 25,000-50,000, 5,000 ante
Mike McDonald - 2nd Place

In what would be the last hand of the tournament, Mike "Timex" McDonald raised to 100,000 from the button and then snap-called off for right around 1.3 million when Phil Ivey announced that he was all in.

Ivey: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
McDonald: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

McDonald was in a great spot to double, but then the flop came down {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{k-Spades}. Ivey paired his king, and suddenly McDonald was in need of either an ace, jack or some other lucky run out of the cards. The {8-Hearts} turn wasn't what he was looking for, and neither was the {9-Hearts} river.

McDonald finished as runner-up for AU$1,592,500 while Ivey has successfully defended his LK Boutique AU$250,000 Challenge title, while also winning it for the third time in four years!
