Marboeuf Survives; Bubble Bursts as Three Players Chop Min-Cashes

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Bubble

Going to the 1073A turn, Daniel Smiljkovic checked from the small blind to David Marboeuf in the cutoff, who bet 30,000 into the pot of 85,000. Smiljkovic then raised all in, and Marboeuf quickly called off his stack of 215,000.

Once the cameras and the tournament director had arrived, the players tabled their cards.

David Marboeuf: 1010 All in
Daniel Smiljkovic: J8

Smiljkovic had plenty of outs to crack the set of Marboeuf, but the river fell the innocuous 6 to decide the pot in Marboeuf's favor.

Marboeuf doubled up, after which it was announced that all remaining players were in the money as Brian Quigley, Niall Grace, and Yan Song had busted at the same time to burst the bubble. Each received €1,200 as they split two min-cashes.
