Simpson Busts Lyall on the Bubble
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
With the elimination of William McClure, the remaining nine players were waiting to draw their seats for the final table while action continued on the main feature table.
Ian Simpson had opened to 40,000 under the gun and Dean Lyall called in the big blind.
Simpson continued for 26,000 on the 4♥8♦A♠ flop, and Lyall called. Simpson then moved all in on the Q♥ turn, and Lyall called for his last 226,000.
Lyall showed A♥6♥ for top pair and a flush draw, while Simpson had turned two pair with Q♠8♣. The 7♣ river was no help to Lyall, and he fell on the money bubble.
The remaining eight players are taking their seats at the final table and are now in the money.
