There were many players who satellited into the Main Event and one of them was David Lappin. As the bubble burst he told PokerNews that it cost him just €4.20 to win his seat in Barcelona and he will now walk away with at least €8,050. Not a bad return on investment.

Randal Flowers just made a comment about the guitar and seat sit-n-go that the five players who busted on the bubble are playing for: "Whoever wins this is going to make more overall than like the next 30 spots."
Ole Schemion hadn’t played a hand until the bubble burst. He started the day with 82,400 and squeezed each card before folding. His frustration was at times etched on his face as he looked down at each unplayable hand.
When the bubble did burst he found a quick double up but not long after that he was all in with 
and was called by 
and 
. No miracles on the run out and the German superstar headed off. It won’t be long before he is back though as the High Roller starts here tomorrow in Barcelona and PokerNews will bring you full coverage.

We missed the pre flop action, but on 
we saw Miguel Chaparro lead out for 13,000 from the small blind. The big blind folded, but Marko Neumann in the cutoff made the call.
Chaparro didn't fire again on the 
-turn, but he did call Neumann's 27,000 bet. The 
hit the river and Chaparro checked. Neumann bet 85,000 and minutes passed before Chaparro eventually called.
He wished he didn't in hindsight most likely, as Neumann showed and left him with 87,000.
