A short-stacked Ben Heath was one of the players that collected the $10,192 min cash shortly after the bubble burst. Heath's left-hand neighbor Davis Aalvik was already stacking Heath's last chips as the Brit bowed out in 33rd place.

Loeser Bubbles Event #2: $10,000 Super Turbo Bounty

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Manig Loeser
Manig Loeser

Manig Loeser raised to 215,000 leaving himself only a handful of big blinds behind. A short while ago he had doubled Taylor Black up, and a look seemingly of resigned inevitability came across Black's face as he moved all in. The remaining players folded, and after Loeser surveyed the remaining tables, he called.

Taylor Black: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Manig Loeser: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

The board came {10-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} with the ace on the turn sending Loeser to the rail, narrowly missing out on the money in the second event of the 2018 WSOP. The remaining 37 players are all guaranteed $10,192.

Black Doubles Through Loeser

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Manig Loeser has been liberally swinging his big stack in the past hour to put the short stacks behind him at risk. From the cutoff, Loeser did it once more, but this time, Taylor Black called from the big blind for 322,000 total.

Taylor Black: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}
Manig Loeser: {K-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

Even though railbird Niall Farrell called the four the "money card," there wasn't a penny for Loeser as the board ran out {Q-Spades}{2-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. The German high roller slipped to 260,000 in the process.
