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: AQ
Keith McKuin: KK

McKuin knocked the table to wish his opponent luck and the dealer fanned out the 956, 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.

De Almelda Picks up Another Bounty

On a flop of 738, De Almelda bet out for 35,000 and the cutoff folded.

Small Blind: A4
Pierre De Almelda: K6

The turn and river came the 10 and 6 respectively. A rivered pair put De Almelda ahead, claiming him another bounty.
