Rounce-Sue Climbs as Day 2 Bubble Approaches
Level 15
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jon-Peter Rounce-Sue opened to 20,000 from the hijack and Dale Marsland defended his big blind for a heads-up pot.
Both players checked on the 5♥3♦6♣ flop and then Marsland led out for 30,000 on the 9♠ turn. Rounce-Sue called.
The 8♥ landed on the river and Marsland checked to Rounce-Sue, who thought a while before placing 70,000 into the middle.
Marsland looked Rounce-Sue up and he showed 5♦5♠ for a set of fives. Marsland sent his hand into the muck and Rounce-Sue padded his stack.
The pace of play has slowed as of late as just 43 players remain, which means only six players need to bust to burst the bubble.
