Johnny Mac

John McDonald is having himself a productive Day 2 so far. He started play with about 36,000, but he's already turned that into more than 90,000 here in the first two levels.

His most recent chip-up came at the expense of his neighbor, Benjamin Jacobs. Jacobs only had about 15,000 when he got his money in with {K-Hearts} {8-Hearts}. McDonald was racing for the knockout with {6-Clubs} {6-Hearts}.

The board: {9-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {5-Clubs}.

Jacobs had a flush sweat on the turn, but the blank on the river has seen his chips absorbed into McDonald's stack.
