Three Way All-in With an All Street Rollercoaster Ride

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Big excitement just took place on table #89.

Andreas Altenburger was with preflop with {9-}{8-} against the Bertan Ulucan with {Q-}{Q-} along with {A-}{A-} from another opponent.

The room became loud when the flop came {9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{k-Spades} giving Altenburger two-pair. His two-pair was counterfeited when a {K-Hearts} hit the turn. However, the excitement didn't end there since Ulucan hit his two-outer and had a full house when a {Q-Diamonds} hit the river.

Andreas Altenburger is out of the tournament and left the room stunned.

He is among the latest players in the PokerNews Cup Main Event to not return to action after the break due to busting out of the tournament.

Players are up and stretching as the first 15 minute break of the day has been announced. There are 99 players left showing on the big board, but we might be closer to 90. The bubble will likely break within the next blind level or two once play resumes.

103 Players Left

Tables keep breaking up, and we are just a couple of dozen players away from the bubble with 103 players left in the tournament. We won't see the bubble break until after the break, but there is a good chance it will occur before the dinner break scheduled to take place before level 21.

Poland's Poitr Sadowski and Germany's Milad Izadmousa were both hoping for a big day, however, were both among the latest casualties in the PokerNews Cup Main Event.
