Brandau Bursts Bubble; End of Day
After a raise to 18,000 preflop, short-stack Scott Brandau moved all in for his last 35,000 on the stone bubble. Bj McBrayer then re-raised to 75,000 which put the pressure on Chico Pho.
After a good minute in the tank, he finally folded 
face up, much to the table's surprise. Brandau and McBrayer then tabled their cards, with Brandau at risk.
Scott Brandau: 
BJ McBrayer: 
"Man, what am I doing over here!" Pho was kicking himself for folding the best hand.
Brandau needed some help to stay alive, but the board of 
did him no favors and he was knocked out on the stone bubble.
His elimination ended the day and the players began the bagging process for tomorrow's Day 2.
A full chip count and recap of both flights will be released shortly so stay tuned!
