Each elimination becomes more painful the closer we get to the money. With less than one table remaining until the bubble bursts, Mickey Appleman went out. It took a few hands. The killer hand was on a board of {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{4-Diamonds}

{A-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

, with Appleman calling bets on the turn and river to be shown his opponent's full house, {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{3-Diamonds}

.

That loss crippled Appleman to 3,000. After getting a few chips back in a six-way pot, Appleman was eliminated by Jason Riesenberg in a three-way pot. Risenberg showed down {2-Diamonds}

{2-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

, a scooper of a hand that nicely matched a board of {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{5-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

{5-Hearts}

.

Riesenberg is up to 80,000.
