Bubble Boy: Christian Iacobellis

He finished one out of the official money, but Christian Iacobellis didn't care.

One hand before busting out No. 154, Iacobellis was challenging his tablemates to a heads-up match online.

Iacobellis, who plays online as "da_professional," called and was all in for 3,900 on the big blind with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs} after Kevin O'Boyle raised on the button to 5,000.

O'Boyle showed {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and the board of {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Spades} was no help to Iacobellis.

"I'm gonna go play high stakes on Full Tilt to get my money back," Iacobellis said.

Because another player was eliminated at a different table on the same hand, Iacobellis will split $3,476 with that player — bubble girl Sarah Bilney.
