Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Mike McDonald is heads up on his table but also the short stack. He's battling away, as you'd expect, and just won a pot to reduce his deficit to 2:3.

He called a min-raise and 750 continuation bet on the {7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop. Both players checked the {10-Diamonds} turn before McDonald led for 1,725 on the {4-Clubs} river. His opponent tank-called and mucked upon seeing {q-Spades}{7-Hearts}.
