If a Bubble Bursts in the Forest...

...and nobody's around to see it...

We were scouring the field for hands in progress, and dealer after dealer stood from their chairs to signal they had finished dealing one hand. There were still two tables involved in pots, and we watched those hands conclude as we prepared for the next bubble hand.

"Congratulations, players! You've made the money!" came the booming voice of the TD.

Really? We somehow failed to catch the unfortunate bubble boy as he made his exit, but we'll trust the staff and tell you that we've officially burst the bubble and we're off to the races for the push to toward the final table.
