All In and Call!

"All in and call table 354!"

Nah, just kidding.

The action so far on the bubble - understandably - has been extremely slow.

Walking round the room, we found that there are at least ten stacks that sit with fewer then ten big blinds!

Five High? No Good!

With the board reading {2-Hearts}{q-Spades}{8-Hearts} Jeff Sluzinski fired a 4,200-chip bet and Frederic Bussot called on the button. The turn card was {8-Clubs} and both players checked.

The river brought a {j-Diamonds} to the table and Sluzinski check-called a 10,000-chip bet from Bussot.

Bussot tabled {5-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and Sluzinski {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Pot for Sluzinski, who is now up to 71,000 chips.

Double up for Yee

James Lee opened the pot and Edward Yee re-popped for an additional 6,300 chips. Lee called.

The flop ran out {10-Spades}{6-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Lee fired a 5,500-chip bet. Yee went all in for an additional 8,200 chips and was called.

Showdown
Yee: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}
Lee: {a-Spades}{6-Diamonds}

The turn card was a {5-Spades} and the river card a {7-Hearts}, giving Yee a double up. Lee slipped to 28,000 and Yee is now up to 27,000 chips.

James Shim Busto

When we arrive at the table the flop was reading {j-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and Eric Nakache fired a 3,000-chip bet. Jedidiah Hoffman called in late position and James Shim re-popped it to 13,000. Nacache called.

The turn brought a {8-Diamonds} to the table and Nacache went all in for 28,000 chips. Shim tanked for about 10 minutes and eventually called all in.

Nacache tabled {a-Spades}{k-Spades} for a flush draw, and Shin tabled pocket queens.

The river card was a {a-Clubs} and Shim is out of the tournament

We're In The Money

Finally after nearly an hour of play on the bubble, and just nine hands, the remaining 243 players are in the money.

With that - the blinds have kicked up!

Hruby Halted, Fish Slips and Sands Soars!

Martin Hruby is now on the rail!
Martin Hruby is now on the rail!

Martin Hruby moved all in for his last 8,000 and David Sands made the call on the button before Darryll Fish moved all in. Sands made the call for his 39,500 total and we were off to a showdown.

Hruby: {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}
Sands: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}
Fish: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

The board ran out a rather undramatic {2-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{10-Hearts} to put Hruby on the rail, Fish down to 28,000 and Sands up to 95,000 in chips.
