Farmer Bursts the Bubble

The bubble has finally burst and the man with the unwanted tag of "bubble boy" is Shawn Farmer. After the big blind came around and ate him up, he was left with only 100 chips and tossed them into the pot after the button raised.

Button: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Farmer: {K-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and the pair of tens held up to eliminate Farmer from the tournament empty-handed, as the remaining 63 players pull out their cell phones in unison to message their friends and family of the good news - they are all $10,159 richer!
