F5’s Thanksgiving Top 10 (2014 Edition): Number 9 – Michael “Timex” McDonald

Top 10 Poker Personalities We’re Thankful For – 2014

He’s got it all.

The looks, the cash and, perhaps, most importantly a pretty damn good sense of humor. When Mike “Timex” McDonald isn’t crushing high roller events (he had 3 7-figure scores in about a month at the start of the year), auctioning pieces of himself off to the highest bidder and playing detective on random electronic payments one of the world’s best poker players is tooling around in his yellow Lambo.

There was a brief moment a couple years ago when it looked like the poker world was going to lose one of the best staredowns in poker as McDonald contemplated retirement, but here in 2014 the man known as Timex has provided us with drama on the felt and a few laughs off. Because we called him the “Justin Bieber of Poker” and he played along like a champ we’re for sure thankful for the Canadian good-nature of Mike McDonald.

Timex talks with Bluff Magazine at the 2014 Aussie Millions to defend his intense staredowns.
