Shpiner Survives the Bubble

Livello 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Ilya Shpiner shoved 81,000 and Patrick Popowski called from a couple of spots to his left.

Ilya Shpiner: A♦K♦
Patrick Popowski: Q♠Q♣

It was a classic race, and the 7♣7♠5♣ flop wasn't looking promising for Shpiner. The J♥ turn left him drawing to just six outs, and the A♥ river was one of them as Popowski exploded out of his chair.

During the first round of hand-for-hand, there were a total of nine all-ins and three eliminations.

For each player double up that was announced, the room filled with boos, as players are ready for the bubble to burst and for the last level of play to come to fruition.

The tournament is now two away from the bubble bursting.

Livello 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Just before the break, on a board reading J♥6♥A♦, Quinn Slattman bet 10,000 and was called by Kai Müller and the player on the button.

The turn brought the 8♥ and actions slowed down when everyone checked.

The river was the K♠ and Slattman bet 45,000, was called by Müller, and the button eventually folded.

Slattman tried to admit defeat, but the table insisted she show, including Müller who was waiting for her to roll her hand. Slattman sheepishly showed the 2♥2♣ and Müller quickly tabled the 6♠6♣, winning him the pot with a set of sixes.

Slattman went on to say that pocket twos always get her in trouble.
