McKuin Makes The Bubble Burst
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Keith McKuin had a shorter stack at risk, not only for for their bounty but also to potentially burst the bubble, depending on the action of the other tables.
Short Stack: A♥Q♦
Keith McKuin: K♣K♥
McKuin knocked the table to wish his opponent luck and the dealer fanned out the 9♦5♠6♦, keeping the pair of kings in front. The turn was the 2♦ and the at risk player needed an ace and an ace only, but the 6♦ wasn't even close. Depending on the way the other hands played out, that player might still chop a mincash. Either way, shortly after this the bubble was declared burst and all remaining players were in the money.
