Olivier Busquet
Olivier Busquet

Mike Watson and Olivier Busquet were the next two players to be all in. The crowd gathered around to see if Busquet would double up against Watson.

When the cards were turned over Busquet had the worst of it with {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts} against the {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} of Watson. The board ran out {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, giving Busquet a few more outs, but it was not to be when the {6-Diamonds} hit the river giving Watson a diamond flush.

Another Bubble Double For Holz

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Georgios Zisimopoulos - Fedor Holz
Georgios Zisimopoulos - Fedor Holz

Georgios Zisimopoulos raised from the button and Fedor Holz, who had just doubled up, moved all in from small blind for 153,000. Zisimopoulos made the call and both players waited for the showdown, as the hands on the other tables needed to be completed first.

While waiting for other hands to finish, Holz said, "This is either how to bubble or how to quadruple," referring to his earlier double up on the bubble.

Holz: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Zisimopoulos: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Zisimopoulos was left with just 48,000 chips as we're still two spots away from the money.
