It's Time!

After a quick few eliminations, we are now on the bubble!

The Tournament Director has just announced that play will switch to hand-for-hand until we lose just one more.

Mascioto Bluffs?

Facing a limp from the button, Mario Mascioto checked his option in the big blind to see a {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{J-Spades} flop fall.

Mascioto checked and his opponent fired out 7,000 before being check-raised by Mascioto to 25,000.

Making the call, Mascioto's opponent folded to his all in when the turn landed the {9-Diamonds} before flashing his {5-Spades}.

Mascioto raked in the pot to move to 130,000 while also flashing his {2-Spades}.

Wallacy Stays Alive

All in and waiting for the river . . . BANG!
All in and waiting for the river . . . BANG!

From middle position, Wallacy Marcal pushed in his last 4,000 before Kwang Ho Han made it 15,000 to go.

Marcal: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Han: {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} . . . {A-Clubs} to see Marcal spike one of his outs on the river to remain alive with 17,500 in chips.

Marcal Triples With King-High

Wallacy Marcal found himself all in once again; this time for 8,000 from the cutoff.

Kwang Ho Han made the call from the small and Homero Ribeiro made the call from the big blind.

Both players checked down the {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} board to see Han muck and Ribeiro table his {9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}.

However it would be Marcal's {K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} that would ensure him another triple; this time amounting to 27,000 in chips.

Alexandre Fracari Bubbles LAPT Florianopolis!

The crowd gathers to witness the bubble hand
The crowd gathers to witness the bubble hand

Alexandre Fracari was all in preflop for about 40,000 chips over on the feature table as the rest of the room watched from the outskirts on the television screens hung at the top of the final table stage. Francisco Azocar was his opponent and the player everyone in the room was hoping would win the hand to bust the bubble.

Azocar: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}
Fracari: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Azocar pulled to the lead with an ace hitting the felt. The turn was the {3-Spades} and the river the {5-Clubs} to send Fracari out the door as the last player to bust from the tournament without anything to show for it. Everyone remaining is now in the money and earning at least $4,619.

Lucrative Bubble for Aalders

Sander Aalders from The Netherlands put his bigger stack of about 180,000 to good use once it was bubble time. His stack went from 180,000 to about 235,000 just from constant preflop aggression in stealing the blinds and antes. Once in a while, Aalders would show an ace from his hand to keep himself honest, but other than that it was nothing but steady growth for his chips stack.
