McDonald Crushing; Mateos First Eliminated
A short time ago Mike McDonald was nursing a very short stack and looked on the verge of elimination.
Fast forward less than a level and McDonald now has one of the biggest stacks in the room.
In the most recent hand he clashed once again with Adrian Mateos. McDonald opened to 4,500 from the button before Mateos raised it up to 14,000 from the big blind. McDonald made the call and both players watched the flop come down 
.
Mateos led out for 20,000 and was called. He bet another 45,000 which was called after the dealer produced the 
on the turn.
The 
completed the board and Mateos instantly moved all in for 128,700. McDonald made the quick call and watched as Mateos rolled over his 
for a straight. McDonald then turned over his 
for a rivered flush and the winning hand.
