Daniel Mizrachi Bubbles the GG Million$
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
On the stone bubble, Daniel Mizrachi was forced all-in from the big blind for his last 20,000. Peng Chen opened under the gun, causing everyone else to fold. Once play was completed at the other tables, Mizrachi and Chen flipped over their cards.
Daniel Mizrachi: 8♣2♣
Peng Chen: A♣K♦
Chen's Big Slick was in the lead, although Mizrachi had two live cards working for him.
A flop of 3♠3♣6♠ helped neither player, but gave Mizrachi some potential backdoor draws. The 10♠ turn meant Mizrachi needed an eight or deuce on the river to survive and keep the GG Million$ on the bubble.
An A♦ peeled off on the river to give Chen a pair of aces, and Mizrachi was the bubble boy of the tournament. The remaining 76 players were all in the money.
