Genova Eliminated on the Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Joseph Genova had whittled down to his last 3,000 and was forced all in from the big blind. Veerachai Vongxaiburana then limped in under the gun, George Alexander raised to 40,000 in middle position, and Vongxaiburana called.
Both players checked the K♥Q♠10♣ flop. Alexander then bet 30,000 on the 2♦ turn and Vongxaiburana folded.
Alexander turned over A♦J♦7♥5♠2♥ for the nut straight and Genova realized he was already drawing dead going to the 4♥ river. His cards quickly hit the muck as he was eliminated on the money bubble.
The remaining 61 players are in the money.
