The bubble is one of the most exciting moments of a poker tournament. During the WSOP main event championship, the bubble is even more crucial. The tension increases with every bustout during hand-for-hand play as the bubble approaches. Players will find out if they wasted $10,000 and three days of their life, or if they cashed in the most prestigious tournament in all of poker. The aggressive players will attempt to steal pots, while others are hoping that they don't get a hand so they can avoid playing in any of the pots over the next few hands. And the short stacks? They are praying that they are not the player who hits the rail under a cloud of despair while the 621 other players remaining in the room are clapping, cheering, and celebrating their milestone.
