Alas, the Bubble Bursts

John Pachos has just earned the unwanted title of tournament 'Bubbly Boy' after being eliminated from the tournament in 41st position by David Gorr.

Pachos open-shoved all in on the {J-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} flop for a total of 33,500 and Gorr made the call:

Showdown:
Gorr: {A-Hearts} {4-Hearts}
Pachos: {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}

Gorr was slightly behind on the flop, but the {A-Diamonds} that fell on the turn gave him the lead and he never looked back. The river delivered an inconsequential {K-Diamonds} and Gorr took down the pot with a single pair of aces. Gorr stacked up 334,000 in chips with the win.
