Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

The under-the-gun player raised to 2,300 and Ronald McDonald moved all in for 17,600. The player in the hijack tanked for a couple of minutes before calling and when action got back around to the original raiser he re-raised to a total of 60,000. The hijack went into the tank again and eventually another player called a clock on him. He then decided to fold his {a-Spades}{k-Spades} face up while the other two players were left heads up with McDonald's tournament life at risk.

McDonald: {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Under-the-gun Player: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Yes, you're reading that correctly. Three players all had ace-king even though one of them decided to get out of the way. The board brought the fourth king into the fray when it came {k-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and McDonald and the other player split the pot.
