It took just two hands of hand-for-hand play before the bubble burst, and what better place to have it happen than on the feature table in the biggest card room in Europe.
Ondrej Mar opened the action from the hijack for 65,000 with ![]()
and partypoker Sponsored Pro Natalia Breviglieri three-bet ![]()
out of the small blind to 150,000. Mar thought about it for a moment or two before announcing all-in for 738,000, and Breviglieri instantly made the call. By that time a crowd of reporters, players, and bystanders had gathered around the feature table area to see the potential last hand of bubble play being dealt.
The ![]()

flop kept Breviglieri ahead in the crucial pot, but Mar still had six outs to prolong the hand-for-hand play. He did not after the
hit the turn, and a visibly excited Breviglieri was all smiles as she had Mar drawing dead to the river. The meaningless river came
, and Breviglieri raked in the massive pot and secured herself and 99 other players a payday of at least €2,000, while Mar got the painful privilege of becoming the 2017 partypoker LIVE Million Germany Main Event bubble boy.
"Ondrej and I have a lot of history, as we spend two days straight playing at the partypoker Grand Prix Germany a month ago. We have been three- and four-betting each other constantly today as well, so it was evident the money would go in," Breviglieri explained the minutes after the money was reached.

With that massive pot, Breviglieri is among the chip leaders of the tournament, sporting a stack of around 2.1 million.
