Brutal Way To Bubble, But Somone Has To Do It

John Hoppman raised preflop only to find one of the largest stacks in the field, Tyler Bonkowski call him.

The flop came {6-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {6-Spades} much to the surprise of the table. Hoppmann wasted no time after Bonkowski checked to him, and fired out a bet. Bonkowski was not going anywhere and made the call.

Hoppmann soon found himself all-in after a series of bets on the {9-Clubs} turn. Unfortunately for Hoppmann there was nothing he could do as his opponent held {Q-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} for quads. A disheveled Hoppmann simply spent the last seconds of his tournament life looking at his {10-} {10-} in dismay as a meaningless {A-Spades} hit the river.

Hoppmann was eliminated in 37th place and is this tournaments bubble boy.
