Loeser Eliminated by McDonald's Two-Outer
Action folded to Manig Loeser in the cutoff, and he raised to 320,000. Mike McDonald three-bet next to act from the button to 1,050,000.
Once the blinds passed, Loeser responded by cutting out a four-bet totaling 3,300,000.
McDonald stared at Loeser and was forced to use a time extension chip before announcing he was all in for 11,735,000. Loeser re-checked his hole cards, then called all in for 10,830,000.
Loeser: 
McDonald: 
The German was in great shape to double with his bigger pocket pair until the dealer spread the 
flop to thrust McDonald into the lead.
Loeser now needed to find his own two-outer or a combination of runner-runner straight cards to stay alive.
The turn and river inevitably fell the 
and 
and Loeser was eliminated in 58th place for a CA$20,000 payday.
