We reached the end of Level 16 still on the bubble. The determination has been made to play on until the bubble bursts. There have already been two all-in survivals; one player called all in with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{3-Hearts}

on a board of {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{K-Spades}

and found himself against {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{9-Diamonds}

. The

{8-Spades}

hit the turn, and the river was the non-repeating {6-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

. That left the player who flopped a set with just 9,000 chips.

On a different table, David Pham put his opponent all in for 52,000 on a board of {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{9-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

. Pham's opponent called with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

; Pham had total air with {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{6-Spades}

. The turn {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

briefly made things interesting, giving Pham a gutshot straight draw. But the river was the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

. Pham is another short stack now, with just 27,000 left.

And so we play on.
