Julien Martini raised to 12,500 from under the gun, and after one call, Marco Johnson moved all in from the big blind for roughly 80,000.

Martini shoved over the top to isolate, and the caller folded.

Johnson and Martini both wrapped pat, and Johnson tabled his {10-}{9-}{7-}{4-}{2-}, but it would be Martin's {8-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{3-} for the roughest eight that would earn him the pot and send Johnson to the rail in 19th place.

Brian Rast
Brian Rast

Brian Rast raised all in for 49,000 from the cutoff, Julien Martini raised to 203,000 from the small blind and Alex Balandin in the big blind asked the floor what would happen if two players from the same table busted. Upon hearing that chip count would determine who finished in which place, Balandin called all in for 51,000.

Martini thought for a bit before he drew one, Balandin stood pat and Rast drew two.

Martini: {6-}{4-}{3-}{2-}
Balandin: {10-}{9-}{5-}{4-}{2-}
Rast: {4-}{3-}{2-}

Martini said he broke a ten and turned over a {j-}, while Rast showed a {6-} and an {a-} to finish as the bubble boy.
