Double Downes on the Bubble
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
An extremely short-stacked Luke Downs committed his last 9,000 from the small blind and received a call from Florian Bussmann in the big. The two players sat for several minutes until action completed at the other tables. Eventually it did and the cards were turned up.
Bussmann: 
Downes: 
The railbirds were deep and giddy with anticipation. However there excitement waned as the board ran out an uneventful 
. Downes doubled, though he is still short. Meanwhile, Bussmann is up considerably since the last time we checked in with him despite losing that hand.
