McDonald Eliminates Johns to Burst Money Bubble

Level 14 (6K/12K/12K) brought us the money bubble showdown:

Nathan Johns (75K) moves all-in with 6♣6♥ and Chip leader Mike McDonald (625K) calls with K♠T♠.

The flop fails to change anything but the turn was the K♦ to give McDonald the lead as the room erupts! The river was another brick and McDonald's paired King secures the elimination, ballooning his stack to 700K as the tournament officially reaches the money! This is a crucial moment as all remaining players are now guaranteed a payout in this TCH Kickoff event!
