No Bubble! All 15 in the Money

Originally only the top 13 players would make the money. Play has been slow for the last level so the 15 remaining players reached a deal to all put $20 in a pot and split the money in half, paying the 15th and 14th place finishers $150.

Break Time

The remaining 14 players are now on a 15-minute break. They are on the official money bubble, but the early deal they made to each pay the bubble has made the speed of play increase.
