Trung Ly is the bubble boy of today's tournament. Severely short-stacked, he tried to hang on until the bubble burst, even going so far as to fold his 800-chip small blind with only 1,000 chips behind. Thereafter, he managed one triple-up to about 3,000 after being dealt a pat nine. But finally, he ran out of time, luck, and chips. All in in the big blind again, he was forced to draw three, then one, then one against Claude Cohen. Cohen drew two, then one, then one. They both finished with jack-seven, but Cohen had jack-seven-five to Ly's jack-seven-six.
Ly is eliminated in 25th place, and with that elimination, all of the remaining players are in the money.
