Players Saving Chips as Bubble Approaches
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Moreno Plozza had put 28,000 chips in the middle already before Antonio Calabro pushed all in, covering him by a good margin. Plozza thought about it for a good while but ended up making the fold and saving his final chips.
Over at another table, David Vinayagamoorthy made the minimum raise to 16,000 and Jeremy Palvini went all in for 85,000. Vinayagamoorthy had the covering stack, but found the amount too much to call, and made the laydown.
With 59 players left and 49 making Day 2, the bubble is approaching fast and players are being more cautious as a result.
