Huge Pot Ensues on the Bubble
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The action folded to Thomas Boivin on the button who just limped in. Ben Heath shipped all in for 217,000 in the small blind and Preben Stokkan asked for a count in the big blind. Stokkan made the call and Boivin re-shoved all in for 284,500, which Stokkan called.
Ben Heath:
Preben Stokkan:
Thomas Boivin:
Three big hands appeared but it was Boivin who held a distinct advantage with his pocket aces. However, a sick run out of gave Heath a straight for the main pot, and Stokkan a set of queens for the side pot. Boivin had his aces cracked and was sent to the rail.
The final 24 players are conducting a quick redraw before the stone money bubble resumes.
