David Lim came in raising from late position, and eventually. both Danny McDonagh and Lim ended up getting it all in before the flop, with McDonagh at risk for his tournament life.

When the cards were rolled over, it was a classic race; Lim's {J-Clubs}

versus McDonagh's {A-Spades}

. The flop was pretty dry for McDonagh, showing up {3-Hearts}

. Lightning struck the turn though, as the {K-Spades}

peeled off, giving him the lead. The river was the {5-Clubs}

, and McDonagh's bigger two pair was enough to earn him a double up. He now sits with 3,950 in chips.

Right at the start of play, director Jonno Pittock announced that there was one bounty player in the field today. That player is Danny McDonagh, who was unable to make it to town for yesterday's "Tony G Bounty Shootout." To the man who eliminates McDonagh today, Pittock promised a "special prize."
