Mike "Timex" McDonald Eliminated in 30th Place (AU$30,000)

Mike "Timex" McDonald began the day as the short stack, so it was no surprise to see him go first.

It happened when action folded to him on the button and he shoved for his last 120,000 or so. Defending champ Ami Barer called from the small blind, and the big got out of the way.

McDonald was behind, but at least he was drawing to two live cards. The flop wasn't very special, but the turn did make things interesting as McDonald picked up an open-ender, though Barer had flush blockers. Those scenarios proved to be a moot point though as the paired the board on the river and Barer won the pot with his king.
