Abratique Busts One Before Money

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The bubble is coming very fast, and a player just busted recently against Michael Abratique. He took his chance before the flop, for not that many chips.

Opponent: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
Michael Abratique: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The opponent was dominated, but when a {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}{9-Spades} came, he found a pair and a flush draw. The {6-Clubs} turn and the {3-Hearts} were not the cards he was expecting, and Abratique made another elimination before bubble time.
