The Bubble has Burst

Eric Tang fought off elimination long and hard, playing short-stacked for the better part of the day, but his run has just come to an end.

Getting the rest of his money into the middle holding K-Q, Tang was called by both Kevin Vanderbeek and Michael Banducci.

The board filled out {A-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}. Banducci and Vanderbeek had checked every street until the river, when Banducci tossed a 5,000 bet into the pot. "Seriously?" asked Vanderbeek, who seemed perplexed by the play.

"OK, I call," Kevin continued, prompting Banducci to turn over {A-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for the absolute nuts.

With Tang's elimination, the remaining 18 players are officially in the money and are currently redrawing for new seats.
