Former Champion Dengfeng Yu Bubbles
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
In a remarkable turn of events, the second-ever Red Dragon champion Dengfeng Yu has become the bubble boy. Two spots shy of the money bubble he had lost a pot of more than a million and was left with an above-average stack, which he then shipped in against Hideyoshi Tanaka and was called.

and the stacks needed to be double-checked. It turned out that both players had exactly 292,000 and that made Yu the bubble boy.
