We didn't catch the action but on the fifth hand of hand-for-hand play, the bubble has been pooped. Budwey Salhab trapped an opponent with pocket kings and got them to commit the rest of their chips. Salhab's kings held versus an ace-high hand and with that the rest of the field is in the money.
There looked to be about 200,000 already piled up in the middle when Chris Meyers checked a flop. His heads-up opponent, Peter Mancini, bet 100,000 only to see Meyers check-shove for 183,500.
"No shame in folding," said Meyers as Mancini sat in the tank. Meyers would eventually see his opponent fold and was pushed a massive pot.
After having her stack cut in half earlier, Marcy Jo Phillips was able to bring it back up to 77,500 when she moved all in preflop being put at risk by Peter Mancini.
Marcy Jo Phillips:
Peter Mancini:
Phillips had her opponent dominated but a run out gave Mancini a flush and Phillips was sent to the rail.
Jason Eisele opened to 11,000 and called a three-bet shove from Matt Marcinkiewicz for 69,000. The two were racing with Eisele having a slight edge with the against Marcinkiewicz's .
The board ran out and Marcinkiewicz hit both of his outs to double.
