Bianchi Attempts to Bring Us to the Money Bubble

Paul Bianchi started the day as the chip leader but has had a tough time getting anything going today. In a recent hand, action folded to a short-stacked player in the small blind and he shipped for 34,000. Bianchi was in the big blind and snap-called after looking down at his cards.

Showdown
Bianchi: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}
Small Blind: {K-Clubs}{2-Clubs}

The {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop kept Bianchi firmly in the lead, but the {K-Spades} spiked on the turn to give his opponent the lead. The {J-Spades} river changed nothing, and Bianchi was knocked down to 390,000. He's still primed to coast into the money, even if he couldn't bring us to the money bubble.
