Bubble Bursts Amid Chaos

We had three seperate all-ins on three different tables which took much time to sort out.

The official bubble was Michael Jens Odderskjer who moved all-in for his last big blind or so and got called by Steven King, Andy Miles and Keith Hawkins who all checked the {K-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} board down.

Odderskjer was all set to leave but with the other hands still going on, he was forced to wait so as to not upset what was going on at the tables. Finally Steven King showed a winning {K-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} and Odderskjer had {Q-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}, which bemused others as to how long he waited before pushing.

Meanwhile Kaj Emmanuel was all-in on a {K-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {4-Spades} against Liam Flood. Emmanuel flipped over {9-?} {9-?} and Flood turned over a {J-?} before finally turning over a {K-?} as well for an unneccesary slowroll.

A {J-?} on the turn and a {10-?} on the river and Emmanuel is out on 72nd place.

The irony is that if Odderskjer had folded he would've made the money instead with a solitary big blind.
