The young Canadian is generally considered the most successful tournament player in the world under 21, and is the youngest player ever to have won a European Poker Tour (EPT) event. At 18 years of age, McDonald won the EPT German Open in Dortmund for €933,600 ($1,370,161) and has since gone on to accumulate over $2.2 million from live tournament cashes, not including his many successes in the online arena.
Mike says that he has already reached his life goal through the time he spent playing poker. He just wanted to get to the point where he never had to do anything for the rest of his life – in other words, an early retirement. With his winnings, Mike has certainly reached that point. He no longer has any obligations, having reached his goal. But though the thought of retiring at 20 might sound rather tempting for others, Mike simply isn’t satisfied with that. He wants more in life – a very admirable admission from one so young.
