Kupin Busts Blair to Burst the Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Eric Blair from under the gun raised all in for his stack of 445,000. On his immediate left, Aaron Kupin made the call. The rest of the table then folded, and it was Blair at risk on the stone bubble.
Eric Blair: A♦Q♣
Aaron Kupin: 9♠9♥
It was a flip, but Blair would need to improve to stay in the tournament. However, the board ran out 4♣10♠K♣8♦4♠ and the pocket nines of Kupin remained best, eliminating Kupin and bursting the bubble.
