Bubble Double

Level 13 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Andrey Zhigalov moved all in for 3,200, Philip Rhee folded from the small blind, leaving himself with 300 chips, and David Bach called.

Zhigalov: {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Bach: {10-Spades}{3-Hearts}

The door card was the {10-Clubs} and Zhigalov was not happy. The dealer spread the flop and the {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} appeared and the expression on Zhigalov's face drastically changed.

The turn was the {k-Clubs} and the river was the {10-Diamonds}. Zhigalov doubled with quads.

Hand for Hand Continues

Level 13 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

With almost half of Level 14 gone, the bubble still hasn't burst. Nicholas Seiken, Philip Rhee, and Andrey Zhigalov are the shortest stacks currently.

Rhee doubled up with {a-}{k-} when he hit trip kings and now tablemate Zhigalov is the short stack, left with only 3,200 after the blinds came through.
