Daniel Dvoress bubbles EPT 12 Dublin €10,200 Single Day High Roller
Daniel Dvoress bubbles EPT 12 Dublin €10,200 Single Day High Roller

Daniel Dvoress just became the bubble boy busting 14th.

He shoved for less than one big blind and after Francois Billard completed from the small blind, Dominik Nitsche checked his option. Billard check-called a 35,000 Nitsche bet on the {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} flop, then both players checked the {2-Clubs} turn.

On the {4-Hearts} river, Billard led for 100,000 and Nitsche folded. Dvoress turned over the {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, but had been beaten by Billard's {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

With his exit, hand-for-hand play is over and the rest of the 13 players remaining are all in the money.
