Vlada Stojanovic: {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

The board came {a-Clubs}{6-Spades}{10-Spades}{3-Spades}{k-Clubs}. Stojanovic hit a pair of sixes on the flop and it looked like he was all set to eliminate Czuczor until the river came the {k-Clubs}. Czuczor paired up with his kings and doubled up.

Wakil Among First to Bust in the Money

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jamil Wakil
Jamil Wakil

Petar Kalev opened to 25,000 from the cutoff. Jamil Wakil, who had been ground down to just 6,000 due to bubble play, called for his tournament life. Igor Picone defended his big blind to create a side pot.

The {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop checked through to the {q-Diamonds} turn. Picone, with 75,000, bet 25,000. Kalev jammed and was called.

Jamil Wakil: {10-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Igor Picone: {q-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Petar Kalev: {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Wakil was drawing dead and Picone and Kalev would share the pot. As the dealer put down the inconsequential river card.

Tomovic Eliminated After Nearly Three-Hour Bubble

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Aleksandar Tomovic

The tension in the tournament area was palpable as players anxiously eyed stacks around the room nearly three hours deep into the bubble.

After several short-stack double-ups throughout the room, Aleksandar Tomovic was forced all in from the small blind and got three callers who were looking to put an end to the bubble trouble.

Action checked to Rui Ferreira on the flop of {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} and he bet 10,000. Only Tom-Aksel Bedell and Roman Hrabec called. All three players then checked on the {10-Clubs} turn and Hrabec checked again on the {8-Clubs} river. Bedell bet 42,000 and Ferreira folded, leading Hrabec to use a time bank before check-raising to 225,000.

Hrabec's raise sent the Norwegian into the tank and he exhausted through three time banks — a fitting end to the lengthy bubble — as spectators made their way to the table. Eventually, he folded and Tomovic waited patiently as hands played out on other tables. Finally, the cards were on their backs.

Tomovic showed {j-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for just jack-high, while Hrabec held {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for a pair of queens to finally burst the bubble as the room erupted in applause.

Conor Beresford: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}
Jenya Gavrilovich: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}

Beresford was on the right side of a preflop cooler and held out to double following the {q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{4-Clubs} runout.

Stojanovic Makes Quad Aces To Breach One Million Chip Mark

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Vlada Stojanovic

The bubble has continued and still no bust. In the latest hand, the board had run out {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. Marton Czuczor checked it and Vlada Stojanovic shoved all in. Czuczor eventually made the call and he had Stojanovic covered.

Stojanovic, however, had the stone cold nuts. He showed {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} for quad aces. Czuczor showed the {5-Diamonds} for the full house. Stojanovic chipped up to over one million.

Aerts Cracks Aces to Double

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Pieter Aerts
Pieter Aerts

Pieter Aerts started the hand with 183,000 and opened to 25,000. Jerome Finck jammed for 262,000 from the button. The blinds got out of the way, and Aerts quickly called for his tournament life.

Pieter Aerts: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Jerome Finck: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

It was the ultimate preflop cooler and even sicker that it was on the bubble. The {q-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Spades} flop had Aerts with one foot out of the door. However, the {k-Diamonds} appeared on the turn to give Aerts a set of kings to take the lead. Finck look sickened. The {6-Hearts} completed the board, which sent Finck for a walk.

"That was f***** up," laughed David Miscikowski. Bubble play continues.
