Mike McDonald gives it another try

Leon Tsoukernik, David Peters, and Mike McDonald all busted and bought back in. That marks the second time McDonald busted today, but at least he qualified for this event for €10,000 via a live satellite so he's only in for €210,000 so far and not €300,000.

McDonald lost his chips before the break to Thomas Muehloecker when the two of them got their chips in on a {4-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades} board and McDonald was drawing slim with his {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} against Muehloecker's {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. The river was a low card, but not the deuce McDonald needed. Instead, the {4-Spades} popped up, which gave Muehloecker quads.

On top of the three players reentering, two new players showed up right after break as well. Rono Lo is becoming a regular on the high-stakes circuit with, amongst others, a fifth-place finish in this event last year for €493,340. Lo is also one of the players registered for the $500,000 Super High Roller Bowl coming this summer at ARIA. Shunu Zang took his seat as well. Zang is not as known as Lo, but cashed in a €10,300 side event here last year (3rd for €84,300).
