Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The bubble has just burst here in the Main Event.

Glenn Keogh opened to 32,000 in the cutoff and was faced with a three-bet jam by Matthew Blayney to 236,000 in the small blind. Keogh made the call to put Blayney at risk.

Matthew Blayney: AQ
Glenn Keogh: AJ

Blayney was in a dominating position but the players seemed set for a chopped pot after the board ran out K99K.

Keogh called for a jack as the dealer prepared to put out the river, and sure enough the J rolled off to seal a painful exit for Blayney.

Keogh meanwhile chipped up to a huge stack of 1,500,000.
