The Floodgates Have Opened

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

As is typically the case, the bursting of the bubble has resulted in a slew of eliminations as all those short-stacks who have been clinging on for dear life try to go big or go home, and for eight of them it was the latter.

Harry Basle has become one of the more recent eliminations, running pocket jacks into pocket kings to depart in 112th.

Despite doubling on the bubble, the short-stacked Sosia Jiang also hit the rail, committing her last 26,000 from the button with {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs} with Matthew Barker looking her up from the big blind with {k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}.

Jiang's last runout would come {7-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and for a moment she thought she had made the straight, but unfortunately, the New Zealander found herself one card short and hit the rail in 111th while Barker stacked up to 274,000.
