A few days ago, Mike McDonald wrote in his blog that he will take a longer break from poker. The main reason for this seems to be that he has no motivation regarding the game, he has accomplished everything he wanted to, he would rather remain unknown, he wants to learn new things and "live a life that is more in touch with everyone else" and he wants to start his own company together with a friend. It's a very, very long blog post and many, many reasons why he has decided to take a break from poker. However, one can understand after reading the entire post that its not the last time we have seen him at the poker tables.
