Stuart McDonald Eliminated

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

Australia's Stuart McDonald, who finished 16th in the EPT12 Barcelona Main Event for €61,800, has been eliminated from the tournament. According to McDonald, a player had opened to 700 and a loose player had three-bet to 1,700 in middle position when he found {A-}{K-} in the small blind. The Australian opted to call with a stack of 21,000 and the initial raiser called as well.

After two checks on an {A-}{J-}{X-} flop with two clubs, the reraiser bet 2,800 and McDonald was the sole caller. On the {J-} turn, McDonald check-called 4,500. The river was a blank and McDonald was put to the test for his last 12,000.

The Australian called it off for his tournament life but was shown {J-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for trip jacks to end his run in this PokerStars Championship Main Event.
