Toby Stone has announced that play will continue until the bubble bursts and then the players will be sent on a break.
If we make it though the whole of level 17 without bursting the bubble then the level will no go up again until it does burst.
Level: 17
Blinds: 2,500/5,000
Ante: 500

We were just four places off the money when Ben Vinson must have been thinking not again! A few weeks ago Vinson was all-in, on the WPT Vienna money bubble, holding 
and he lost against the inferior ace of Benjamin Wilinofsky.
This time he was all-in against Team PokerStars Pro Max Martinez and once again it was a sweat with ace king.

The flop was horrid for Vinson - 
- and the turn 
not much better, but just when Vinson thought history would repeat itself the 
on the river saved his skin.

Anette Obrestad has fallen just short of the money after busting from the feature table.
We caught up with her just off stage and she said she shoved with pocket tens only to run into the pocket kings of an opponent.

We joined the action on a flop of 
and the three players in the hand were Tristan Clemencon (early position), Rodrigo Dos Santos Caprioli (middle position) and David Sands (button). Clemencon checked, Caprioli bet 13,500, Sands called and then Clemencon spiced things up with a check-raise to 49,000. Caprioli moved all-in, Sands folded quickly, as did Clemencon - but not without some thinking time.

Team PokerStars Pro Max Martinez could have possibly bubbled this event with what just happened.
Martinez raised from early position to 8,000 and Geert-Jan Potijk three-bet from middle position to 20,500. Action folded back to Martinez and he made the call.
The flop came down 
and Martinez check-called a bet of 26,000 from Potijk before the paired the board on the turn. Martinez checked again and Potijk fired 56,000. Martinez made the call.
The river card was the 
and Martinez checked with approximately 355,000 behind. Potijk bet all in and had Martinez covered, creating a massive pot. Martinez tanked and tanked. Eventually, he mucked his hand, but looked very pained to do so. Potijk scooped the pot and moved to 670,000 in chips without showing his hand.
On the next hand, Martinez raised from under the gun to 8,000 and was called by the player in the big blind. The flop came down 
and the big blind checked. Martinez bet 9,500 and folded to his opponent's check-raise to 25,000.

Alessio Isaia is out after three-betting his remaining 35,000 with 
. Nicolas Chouity had opened from the button and made a quick call when the Italian shoved from the small blind.
Isaia:
Chouity: 
The board ran 
to smack Chouity in the face, in a good way of course!

Erich Kollmann and Basil Yaiche just decided to have a little pre flop battle.
| Yaiche |  |
| Kollmann |   |
Kollmann looked certain for the double-up when the dealer laid four cards down on the felt - 
then a cruel 
handed Kollmann a set, but gave Yaiche a straight.
