Morgan McBrayer jammed for 65,000 from the cutoff, Corey Harrison jammed for slightly more from the small blind, and Yousef Saleh called to put both players at risk in the big blind.

Morgan McBrayer: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Corey Harrison: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Yousef Saleh: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Saleh jumped ahead on the {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, but McBrayer spiked a set on the {6-Spades} turn. The {7-Hearts} river earned McBrayer a triple-up, while Harrison hit the rail.

Jay Bishop Eliminated in 18th Place ($2,187)

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jay Bishop
Jay Bishop

One hand after his {a-}{10-} couldn't overcome Wyatt Boothe's {k-}{q-} in an all-in preflop confrontation, Jay Bishop got his last 60,000 in chips in from middle position and was at risk against Yousef Saleh on the button.

Jay Bishop: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Yousef Saleh: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

"Some days you're the windshield, some days you're the bug," Bishop had said after losing to Boothe, and his words proved true when the {6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} board left him losing his second flip in a row to bust the former HPT Ameristar Vicksburg champ.

Doug Segers Bubbles HPT Ameristar Vicksburg

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Doug Segers in previous action

Doug Segers jammed for 46,000 from the cutoff, and Jason Reisenberg called in the big blind.

"You've got me in bad shape," Segers told Reisenberg before the cards could be tabled.

Doug Segers: {k-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Jason Reisenberg: {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Segers needed a king to avoid being the bubble boy, but a {9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Spades} board failed to provide any help, leaving him as the last player to go home empty-handed from HPT Ameristar Vicksburg.

Bubble Time

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

With nineteen players remaining and eighteen slated to be paid, we've reached the bubble of HPT Ameristar Vicksburg. Two minutes will run off the clock per hand during hand-for-hand play. Stay tuned as we find out who our unfortunate bubble boy or girl will be.

Imarata Bubbles the Bubble

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Joseph Imarata in previous action

Joseph Imarata jammed for 74,000 from middle position, and Jaron Bailey tanked for a minute before calling on the button.

Joseph Imarata: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Jaron Bailey: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

Imarata shook his head after seeing his pair was dominated, and the {5-Spades}{4-Clubs}{5-Hearts} flop gave him no immediate help. He picked up a few outs when the {6-Spades} turn opened up any three for a winner, but the {10-Spades} turn left him leaving the tournament area in a hurry.
