Roman Voitovs Really, Really Doesn't Want to Bubble

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

According to the table, Roman Voitovs tanked for "ten minutes" as the money bubble was approaching. It wasn't that he didn't have a decision, it was that he didn't want to bubble with pocket aces.

He ended up getting all in and at risk on the flop against an open-ended straight draw. He held and was very relieved. Once the hand played out, the table agreed that it was understandable why he waited so long.

While he was scooping in the pot, the floor announced that hand-for-hand play has officially begun.
