Gruissem Finishes in 17th Place as the Bubble Boy

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

It didn't take long for the money bubble to burst in the $25,000 High Roller tournament. A short-stacked Philipp Gruissem moved all in for 70,000 and was called by Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Jason Mercier.

Gruissem: {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Mercier: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}

Mercier was far ahead and stayed there as the board ran out {8-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. With that, Gruissem becomes the bubble boy by finishing in 17th place.
