Michael "Timex" McDonald Doubles Through Mark Saber

Mark Saber raised to 22,000, Michael "Timex" McDonald moved all in and Saber made the call.

Saber {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
McDonald {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The flop was {K-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Spades}, giving the lead to McDonald with a pair of kings. The turn was the {4-Hearts}, the river was the {K-Spades} and McDonald took it down with trips. Saber's stack was decimated on the hand, leaving him with only 72,000 while McDonald seized the chiplead with over 300,000.

"Run good, monkey!" teased McDonald's friend Jimmy "Gobboboy" Fricke who watched the hand play out from an adjacent table.
