Ruscitti Eliminated By Reichard On Bubble

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Brett Reichard
Brett Reichard

Four players were eliminated in one hand on the bubble so it is unclear who was the bubble boy. One of the players that was eliminated in that hand was Kevin Ruscitti.

Brett Reichard raised to 12,000 in early position and Kevin Ruscitti three-bet to 60,000 which folded all other action and Reichard called.

The flop came out {k-}{3-}{2-} and Reichard checked as Ruscitti continued for 60,000. Reichard raised to 150,000 and Rossini moved all-in for 340,000 and Reichard snap-called.

Kevin Ruscitti: {a-}{a-}
Brett Reichard: {2-}{2-}

The flopped set of Reichard held as Ruscitti left the tournament area and within minutes an announcement was made that all remaining 251 players had made the money

Joe Cada

Chad Buzinski raised to 16,000 in first position and Nicolas Manion called in the hijack and Joe Cada called in the big blind.

The flop came out {k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades} and Cada checked to Buzinski who continued for 26,000 and Manion folded. Cada took his time before counting out a raise for all of Buzinski's 65,000 behind and Buzinski called.

Chad Buzinski: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Joe Cada: {5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

The turn rolled off a {2-Spades} which gave Cada a straight to leave Buzinski drawing dead before the {2-Hearts} river came off and he collected his payout and left the tournament area.
