The flop was {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts} and there was around 12,000 in the pot already. TJ Cloutier was on the button and facing a bet of 6,000 from his opponent. Cloutier raised the pot to 30,900 and his opponent called.

The turn was the {2-Spades} and Cloutier's opponent checked. Cloutier went all in for his remaining 6,100 and got called. Cloutier tabled {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for a full house and his opponent was drawing dead with {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Spades}. The river was the {4-Diamonds} and Cloutier raked in a big pot at the end of the second level.

Aces Full for Christopher Delgrande

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Christopher Delgrande
Christopher Delgrande

Kyle Ho raised to 3,400 from under the gun and Tom Marchese called in early position as did both Christopher Delgrande on the button and Chun Law in the big blind. The flop came {k-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and everyone checked to the {a-Diamonds} on the turn.

Ho led out for 4,300 and both Marchese and Delgrande called. The river brought the {j-Hearts} and Ho bet again for 10,200. Marchese folded his hand, then Delgrande raised all in. Ho only had 5,500 remaining but thought for over two minutes about what to do. He eventually stuck in his last few chips and Delgrande rolled over {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} for a full house. Ho mucked his cards and took off through the exit doors.

Money Bubble Has Burst

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 0 ante
Money Bricks
Money Bricks

After three hands of hand-for-hand play, the bubble has burst. Hoyt Corkins elected to not even look at his cards or sit at the table while on the bubble in fear of becoming the bubble boy. The table all had a good chuckle and Corkins made it into the money after the following hand finished.

Fabian Schoneck was in middle position and raised to 4,200. Andrew Moser was on the button and moved all in for his remaining 6,800, and Schoneck called.

Schoneck tabled {k-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}, and Moser showed {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}.

The board ran out {3-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Schoneck made two pair on the river when the four hit to send Moser to the rail and the rest of the field into the money. All remaining players are guaranteed a minimum of $2,249.

On the Money Bubble

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Now just 132 players remain, which means they'll be going to hand-for-hand play — if no one is eliminated on the remaining tables first.

Huge Pot Just Before Money Bubble

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Mark Herm was in the cutoff and raised to 2,500. Fabian Schoneck was on the button and three-bet to 9,300, Herm called.

The flop was {j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Spades} and Herm potted for 20,400. Schoneck called.

The turn was the {k-Hearts} and Herm moved all in for 38,700. Schoneck thought for a bit as this was the majority of his remaining stack and eventually folded his cards saying, "If the turn was a blank, I would have gone all in."

When arriving to the table, Mohsin Virani had just taken a huge hit to his stack on the previous hand, leaving him with 4,200. On the following hand, action folded to Virani on the button and he moved all in for 4,200. He was called by Brant Hale in the big blind.

Virani tabled {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, while Hale showed {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Virani got the double-up with aces and fives to survive as the money bubble nears.
