Hero Call Gone Wrong for McDonald

The 'table of death' we talked about earlier has been taken apart by one man, Mikko Sundell. The Finish player who final tabled the WPT in Paris earlier this year is crushing and just knocked out Mike McDonald.

The board was {6-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and McDonald checked from the small blind to Sundell who bet 6.000. That bet was enough to put the Canadian all-in, and after only a couple of seconds he made the call and got the bad news. Sundell showed {K-Spades}{10-Spades} after which McDonald mucked his cards and left the room. He later told us he also called pre flop, on the flop and turn with pocket sevens. McDonald is going to play as many events as possible so we'll be seeing lots of him this week.
