Nguyen Pops the Bubble
Level 17
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
The hand-for-hand portion of this event lasted just under an hour until the money was reached. Badr Imejjane moved his 401,000 stack into the middle. Directly on his left was Thong Nguyen who called and every player in the room locked their attention on the bubble showdown.
Badr Imejjane: 
Thong Nguyen: 
An absolute cooler saw Nguyen on top with his bullets and the 
flop brought little excitement for Imejjane. The 
turn and 
river cemented it for Nguyen.
Imejjane was dubbed the bubble boy of the Main Event and the rest of the field has now hit the money.
