Players Have Made the Money

It was slow and took four hands, but we have lost two players to burst the money bubble. One of the players who was eliminated got his remaining money in with {J-}{6-} and was way behind his opponent's {J-}{9-}. The flop brought a {9-} and that was the end of that.

The other player eliminated was Vinnie Pahuja. Pahuja was crippled the prior hand when his pocket aces were cracked by a flush. The very next hand, Pahuja shipped his remaining 1,200 with {A-}{Q-} and was called by {6-}{6-}. Pahuja could not improve and he appears to be the official bubble boy.

Once all hands were completed, the tournament director congratulated the remaining players for making the money. Action is now back to normal and we expect a surplus of eliminations now that the bubble has burst.
