Bubble Time

Right now play has slowed down to a snail's pace as the players approach the bubble. After playing for almost two full days, the remaining players are taking extra precautions not to make any crucial mistakes where they would put their stacks and tournament lives at jeopardy.Any misplay would cost them a chance of making the money.

In order to avoid a $15K mistake, players with medium and small stacks have tightened up. Several pros use this exact time to add more chips to their stacks as they pick on amateurs and online qualifiers who are afraid of busting out before the money. For the online amateurs who qualifed for a minimal investment, $15,000 is a hefty pay out. With 90 players left, we're only 10 players until the money bubble bursts.

And if anyone has busted out on near the bubble in a major tournament, they can tell you about depressing that moment feels when they leave the poker room only a few spots from cashing. Soul crushing, indeed.
