5th place: Kevin MacDonald

Kevin MacDonald lost most of his chips in a rather strange hand. Chan An raised his button to 1,300,000, and when the bet was announced to Kevin, he thought for a moment before announcing a clear, loud ‘call!’. It led to believe that Kevin thought Chan An was all-in, however he still had 1,475,000 behind. When Kevin realized this, he opted to move all-in blind before the flop was brought out.
