Michael Dean McCray Eliminated in 26th Place

Michael Dean McCray - 26th Place
Michael Dean McCray - 26th Place
Robert McLaughlin opened with a raise to 18,000, and Michael Dean McCray moved all in for a total of 72,000. Action passed back around the table, and McLaughlin quickly called, creating a McBattle for a heap of chips.

McShowdown:
McLaughlin: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}
McCray: {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}

The flop was certainly a sweat for both players as it came out {Q-Hearts} {J-Spades} {8-Diamonds}. McCray had stormed into the lead, but he still had to dodge a bunch of outs with two cards to come. The turn was a safe {9-Hearts} for him. Much to his dismay though, fifth street brought the dooming {K-Spades}, allowing McLaughlin to re-take the lead and win the pot. When the chips were counted down, it was very close, but McCray was covered by just a couple thousand. With that, Michael Dean McCray becomes our 26th-place finisher.

Robert McLaughlin, on the other hand, has more than doubled up, sitting now on a stack of 160,000.
