Petrangelo is the Bubble Boy

The money bubble has burst on just the fourth hand of hand-for-hand play with Nicholas Petrangelo finishing as the unfortunate bubble boy.

It happened when a short-stacked Petrangelo moved all in under the gun for 79,000 holding {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts} and he cleared the field all the way around to Shawn Buchanan, who woke up with {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs} in the big blind. The call was made and immediately the cameras, media and other players surrounded the table to watch.

Petrangelo was in need of a nine to keep his 2013 PCA $25,000 High Roller hopes alive, but it just wasn't in the cards as the board ran out an uneventful {3-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{J-Spades}. All things considered, Petrangelo seemed to take being the bubble boy in stride.
