Not to Burst Your Bubble...

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

After Nancy Martin eliminated a player holding {a-}{a-} against the all-in opponent's {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, the remaining 55 players in Event 15: $300 $75,000 Guaranteed Deep-Stack NLHE Reentry were on the exact money bubble.

On one of the first few deals of hand-for-hand play, a gentleman named Amine Chab raised in late position, and a short-stacked player moved all in for 38,000. Chab called.

Chab: {7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}
Player: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

"Ace-queen is a nice hand," one player at the table said.

"For now," grunted the at risk player.

That last bit was a pinch of foreshadowing, as the dealer fanned a flop of {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}, giving Chab a leading pair of sevens, and the turn and river completed {9-Clubs}, {3-Hearts} respectively.

The bubble is now burst, and the remaining 54 players are guaranteed a minimum of $508.
