Arnolds Bursts the Bubble by Busting Craddock

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jayson Craddock
Jayson Craddock

Jayson Craddock shoved from the middle position for 45,000 and Pearce Arnold shoved for more in the cutoff for the rest of the table to fold. Once all the action on the other tables was completed, the cards could go on their backs.

Jayson Craddock: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Pearce Arnold: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for Arnold to hold with the pair of jacks and send Craddock to the rail as the bubble boy.

The rest of the field is now guaranteed at least $550 if they bust today and more if they make it to Day 2. Play will end when there are 13 players left.

The player in the hijack raised to 15,000 and Carlton Brumm called in the small blind.

They both checked through the {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}{a-Spades} on the flop to the {4-Hearts} on the turn. The hijack bet 15,000 after Brumm checked. Brumm responded with a shove for 37,000 in total. His opponent wasn't too happy about it, cut out calling chips, looked at the remainder of his own stack, and then made the call with {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. Brumm held {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} for the higher pocket pair.

The river completed the board with the {6-Diamonds} for Brumm to double up.
