Bubble Bursts!

The bubble has come and gone without much drama, blasting right past hand-for-hand play and on into the money.

The man who called himself "Dali" has earned himself the unenviable title of "Bubble Boy" and it came in the traditional fashion, pocket aces versus the ol' ten-six offsuit.

Dali was down to just a few thousand chips when he peeked down at the {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}. Big stack Benjamin Pollak had the {10-Clubs} {6-Hearts} and plenty of chips to try for the knockout. When the board ran out {6-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} {8-Spades}, Dali threw his two black aces up into the air and shouted what we can only assume was profanity in a foreign language. His cards landed on the floor, and he paced slowly away as the last player to make the walk of shame without a payday.

The remaining 54 players are now in the money!
