Tomovic Eliminated After Nearly Three-Hour Bubble

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The tension in the tournament area was palpable as players anxiously eyed stacks around the room nearly three hours deep into the bubble.

After several short-stack double-ups throughout the room, Aleksandar Tomovic was forced all in from the small blind and got three callers who were looking to put an end to the bubble trouble.

Action checked to Rui Ferreira on the flop of {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and he bet 10,000. Only Tom-Aksel Bedell and Roman Hrabec called. All three players then checked on the {10-Clubs} turn and Hrabec checked again on the {8-Clubs} river. Bedell bet 42,000 and Ferreira folded, leading Hrabec to use a time bank before check-raising to 225,000.

Hrabec's raise sent the Norwegian into the tank and he exhausted through three time banks — a fitting end to the lengthy bubble — as spectators made their way to the table. Eventually, he folded and Tomovic waited patiently as hands played out on other tables. Finally, the cards were on their backs.

Tomovic showed {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for just jack-high, while Hrabec held {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a pair of queens to finally burst the bubble as the room erupted in applause.
