El blog de Mike “Timex” McDonald fue el medio en lo cual el jugador de 20 años anunció que se va a jubilar del juego.
McDonald ha ganado más de 2.6 millones de dólares en torneos en vivo y ya busca un cambio en su vida. “Antes de hablar sobre qué voy a hacer a partir de ahora, creo que debería señalar que me encanta jugar al póquer y creo que nunca llegaré tan alto en nada como lo he hecho en el póquer... El póquer te acaba aislando más de lo que yo pensaba en un principio".McDonlad llegó a ser el ganador más joven del EPT en 2008 cuando ganó 933.000 € en Alemania y un año después regresó para llevarse 197.000 € por salir en quinto lugar. Su tercera plaza en el €5,000 No Limit Hold'em Main Event en Deauville le ganó otros 295.000 € y también ha ganado recientemente el evento $1,500 No Limit Hold'em en la 2010 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure - otros $146,804.“Quiero volver a la universidad, estudiar y aprender cosas nuevas, conocer gente… y empezar a vivir una vida teniendo más contacto con la gente que persigue mis mismos objetivos”, afirmó McDonald.
