The 194 remaining players have taken their seats and cards are back in the air for bubble play.
Walter Treccarichi raised to 7,000 under the gun. Dick Postel called in the cutoff before Tomas Vaskunas jammed in 64,000 on the button.
Treccarichi asked for a count but folded quickly thereafter. Postel followed suit as Vaskunas chipped up a bit.
Bernhard Binder raised to 8,000 from middle position before Ran Ilani made it 55,000 from the button. Ilani left one T-1,000 chip behind and Alexandre Vuilleumier called the raise from the big blind. Binder folded.
Vuilleumier bet 1,000 on the 9♣8♦4♦ flop and Ilani put in his last chip.
Ran Ilani: A♥K♦
Alexandre Vuilleumier: A♠Q♠
Ilani had Vuillemier dominated and remained in front following the 7♦ turn but Vuillemier found his three-outer on the Q♥ river to set up the soft bubble.
Tobias Eichenseher raised from the cutoff to 8,000 and Adrian State called out of the big blind.
The action was checked all the way to the river on the K♠J♣6♣10♠Q♥ board where State checked, Eichenseher bet 6,000, State raised to 30,000, and Eichenseher checked the board before he dropped in the call.
Both players showed an ace and chopped the pot, but it was what happened afterward that cause some commotion.
"He gets a penalty right? Does he got a penalty?" asked State as Eichenseher had only called the river with the nuts. The table thought State was joking but he insisted that the floor come over and give their verdict.
"Come on, we aren't in kindergarden," said Anton Wigg who was sat on State's right. Eventually the floor came over and ruled that no penalty was necessary in this instance, which was praised by most of the table as being the right decision.
With 193 players on the clock, the dealers have been instructed to start dealing hand-for-hand until the bubble bursts.
