Timex keeps on ticking

After two early-position players limped in for 600 apiece, Michael "Timex" McDonald popped it to 2,100, only to see PokerStars qualifier and fellow Canuck Russell Carson move all in from the button. The limpers folded and McDonald insta-called.

McDonald: {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Spades}

Carson:

{K-Diamonds}

{K-Clubs}

The flop was {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

, the turn was the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

, but the

{Q-Clubs}

spiked on the river to save Timex and send Carson to the rail. He's now up to 25,500 with just about 25 more minutes to play today.
