McDonald Takes Number One
On the first hand of the final table, action folded to Ilari Sahamies in the hijack seat and he raised to 65,000. Mike "Timex" McDonald was in the small blind and knew he had a lot more chips than both Erik Seidel in the big blind and Sahamies, so he moved all in having them well covered. Both Seidel and Sahamies folded, giving McDonald the first pot.
