Augustine of Hipp-0
Nicholas Augustino just became our bubble boy, and the bustout occurred after he was put to the test by Luke Staudenmaier.
We caught the action on the turn, with the board reading , and Augustino facing a bet of 19,600 by Staudenmaier. Augustino elected to call and peel one off, and the completed the board on the river.
Staudenmaier immediately moved all in to put Augustino at risk, and with a crowd developing around the table to witness this potentially bubble-bursting hand, he went into the tank for a minute or so to think through his options.
Eventually, Augustino elected to make the call, but his shoulders sagged when Staudenmaier coolly revealed the for a straight on the turn. Augustino could only offer a sincere "nice hand" before exiting the Amazon Room, while the remaining 54 players celebrated their good fortune.
