Eric Siegel Bursts the Bubble

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

The action folded to Eric Siegel in the small blind and he moved all in. The player in the big blind called for his last 54,000 and the hands were shown.

Eric Siegel: {q-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Big Blind: {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades} runout was no help to either player and Siegel's queen high was enough to earn him the knockout.

The remaining 54 players are now all in the money and guaranteed a minimum of $687 for their efforts.

Dinner Time for Saturday Series

Event #6: Saturday Series DeepStack NLH is on dinner break until about 8:35pm.

Shortly before the end of level 15, Tommy Bates had another player all-in and in bad shape, with pocket queens against his opponent's pocket tens.

A ten on the flop sent the lead the other way, but then Bates caught a Queen for the bigger set. He stacked his opponent and is possibly the chip leader among the remaining 78 players as they head out for dinner.
