Claudius Secara - 5th Place

Mike McDonald has been running over the table since his double up, opening most of the hands that are folded to him. So no one was surprised when he raised to 220,000 preflop. Claudius Secara had to like his spot when he shipped in his 910,000. Snap call from Timex. Bad timing for Secara.

McDonald: {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Diamonds}

Secara:

{J-Hearts}

{J-Clubs}

- at risk

Boring board: {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{4-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

Secara got a rousing cheer from his fans as he headed to the interview area. The rest of the table, on the other hand, is anything but cheering to see McDonald get even more chips. His towering stack is now over 10 million.
