Strelitz Hits One-Outer to Avoid His First Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
On the stone money bubble, Dan Smith put in a massive raise from the button before Maxx Coleman moved all in from the small blind for around 150,000. Daniel Strelitz moved in behind him from the big blind for around 113,000 and Smith called.
"I've never stone-bubbled a live tournament before," Strelitz said.
"You really want to say that now?!" someone at the table asked.
Daniel Strelitz: 
Maxx Coleman: 
Dan Smith: 
The flop landed 
to give Coleman a big lead with a set of tens. "Oh my god," Strelitz moaned before the dealer put out the case 
to give him a better set. "Oh my god!" he said again.
The 
on the river didn't change anything and Strelitz tripled up to avoid bubbling, while Coleman received a small side pot to also stay alive.
