Event 6: Stevens Bubbles

Texas Hold'em

Matt Stevens tossed his last 13,000 from the cutoff, and both blinds called him.

The flop came down {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Both blinds checked, then the small blind bet the {3-Hearts}. The big blind called, and both checked the {k-Clubs}.

Stevens turned over {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}, but the small blind had flopped a straight with {9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}. The big blind announced two pair, so Stevens' aces had ended up third-best.

We're now in the money, and the final 18 players will be playing with bets of 10,000-20,000.
