Zdravko Duvnjak Is the Bubble Boy
Down to his last 23,000 in chips as the tournament’s shortest stack Croatia’s Zdravko Duvnjak moved all-in on the very first hand of hand-for-hand for the very last hand of level 15.
Sosia Jiang made the call from the button and both players had to spend an agonizing few minutes waiting in suspense while the hands played out on the other three tables before the cards could be turned over.
“Good news,” Jiang told Duvnjak, “I have not busted any short stacks for the entire tournament.”
Duvnjak did not look reassured, but then it was his tournament life on the line. Eventually, the cards are turned over and Duvnjak found himself in trouble.

The flop came down 
to further extend Jiang’s lead but the turn was the very sweaty 
to give Duvnjak flush outs in addition to the decks two remaining tens. Unfortunately, the river was the 
and Duvnjak headed for the rail empty handed while the 27 remaining High Rollers have all locked up at least HK$175,000.
