Adrian "ParTee" Buckley Bubbles 2020 WSOP Main Event

Chad Holloway

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,200 ante

"Samthedog76" raised to 32,000 under the gun and called when WSOP bracelet winner Adrian "ParTee" Buckley moved all in for 154,716 from the hijack.

Adrian "ParTee" Buckley:
"Samthedog76":

It was a flip with Buckley looking to hold to avoid becoming the bubble boy. While he was able to dodge all the kings and aces, it wound up being a more gutwrenching loss as the board ran out to put quads on the board.

That meant Buckley's flopped full house was no good and that the ace kicked of "Samthedog76" made the difference.

With that, Buckley was bounced in 108th place while the remaining 107 players are guaranteed a $14,890 payday.

Darren "darrenelias" Elias moved his 185,588 all in preflop over a raise. He got called by Nick "CashUsKlay" Schulman.

It was a classic cooler situation as Schulman had the but was against the of Elias.

Chad Holloway

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,200 ante

Justin "cheersfive' Liberto raised to 24,225 and Daniel "Bunzer07" Jordan three-bet to 111,000, which left him just 12K behind. Liberto responded with a four-bet and Jordan called off.

Justin "cheersfive' Liberto:
Daniel "Bunzer07" Jordan:

Both players had ace-queen but there would be no chop as the board ran out to give Liberto the runner-runner spade flush for the win.

With that, Jordan was ousted in 109th place, which means just one more player needs to exit before the money bubble bursts.
