The Ends of the Spectrum; The End of the Bubble

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

The bubble has now popped but not before Jeff Wells crushed it, moving into chip lead position.

Mike Steinhauser looked to be the shortest stack in the room, but held on to a less-than-ten big blind stack to guarantee at least a min-cash when the bubble popped at another table.

Timothy Andruschat was the unlucky player to say goodbye 28th, running pocket kings into Rick Block's weak ace. He became the bubble boy when Block spiked an ace, and as they redraw for seats at the final three nine-handed tables, Block has moved up the leader board significantly.
