Fluegel Bubbles the Mini Main Event
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Kevin Fluegel opened under the gun only to bet three-bet by Kai Vater from middle position. When it folded back to Fluegel, he shoved for 652,000. Vater called to try to send all the remaining players into the money.
Kevin Fluegel: A♦K♥ 
Kai Vater: K♦K♣
It was a cooler with Fluegel holding big slick versus the pocket kings of Vater.
Fluegel needed an ace to remain seated, although he didn't find one on the 7♣10♥6♠ flop. A 9♠ turn offered up a few chop outs for Fluegel, but the 5♦ river was no help for him.
Fluegel exited on the stone bubble, as the remaining 194 players were now all in the money.
