Timex Totalled by Tollerene

Level 10 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Mike 'Timex' McDonald has been eliminated from the $50,000 Single Day High Roller tournament after being a big favourite to progress when he was committed.

Pre-flop, McDonald made it 32,000 and when Tollerene moved all-in, McDonald quickly called. McDonald turned over {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} and he was well ahead of Tollerene's {A-Spades}{8-Spades}. But the flop of {A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} put Tollerene into a crucial lead, and his chances of winning the hand only improved on the {10-Spades} turn. The river of {10-Clubs} saw Tollerene hold and Timex make his way from the tournament.
