McDonald Gets The Farm

[user76023]

Mike McDonald is up to 260,000 after eliminating an opponent with {A-Hearts}

against

on a

board.

There was some confusion afterwards from his opponent who was sure he had 'Timex' covered but only had 125,700 to the Canadian's 137,400.

Mysterious Hand for Baldwin

[user46392]

Eric Baldwin made it 5,000 from the hijack and the gent in the cutoff was the only caller.

They proceeded to check down the {8-Diamonds}

flop and

turn, but the river was the {A-Hearts}

and instead of checking, Baldwin bet out a disproportionately hefty 20,000. His opponent looked him up and down before passing the {A-Clubs}

up.

Baldwin is now over the 100,000 mark.

ElkY Makes a Good Call

[user46392]

A board reading {4-Clubs}

lay on the felt, and ElkY's opponent bet 12,000. After a tense moment, ElkY called -- and was rewarded when his opponent turned over a hadn't-hit-anything {A-Diamonds}

. ElkY flipped the unlikely {J-Spades}

for trips, and took the pot.
