A Tough Hand on the Bubble

The bubble is one of the most difficult and stressful moments of a poker tournament. No one wants to bust out and waste several hours of hard work and go home with nothing.

An interesting hand developed. Action was folded to Ian Schoots in the small blind. He moved all in for 16,000. Ram D was in the big blind and he went in the tank. Ram D eventually called.

Ram D: {A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Schoots: {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}

Ram D was way ahead but Schoots too the lead on the flop of {K-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts}. The turn was the {A-Hearts} and Ram D jumped back into the lead. The river was the {7-Clubs}, which gave Schoots trips. He won the pot, avoided being the bubble boy, and increased his stack to 33,000.
