A Champion Out on The Bubble

They say the great players use the time around the bubble to attack players just hanging on to make the money and build their stack. Jay Heimowitz didn't try to fold into the money, he bet and raised the last of his chips, but after the board played out {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{10-Spades} Heimowitz couldn't beat his opponent's trip eights and has been eliminated on the bubble.

Oops

Uh, turns out we're NOT in the money yet. Or, maybe, we are. They think they might've miscounted the players remaining and they're double-checking to determine if we need to bust one more player.

Held In Suspense

OK, turns out we need to bust one more player to make the money. And after returning to hand-for-hand for a few minutes the level ended and we're on a 15-minute break. So a few shortstacks will have a queasy quarter-hour to ponder their chances of survival before we resume at 7:40 p.m. PDT.

In the Money

The bubble has finally, definitively, officially burst. The remaining 63 players will all cash and take home at least $3,249.
