Aido Sends Out McDonald
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
John McDonald got his final 24,000 into the middle from the cutoff and was at risk against Sergio Aido from middle position.
John McDonald: A♠J♠ 
Sergio Aido: A♣K♥
McDonald was in rough shape against the dominating ace of Aido. The K♦J♦4♠ flop gave both players a pair but McDonald could improve no further on the 6♣10♣ runout as the Spaniard held on for the elimination as he approaches 200,000 early in Day 2.
