Chris "battenfield" Battenfield Bursts The Money Bubble

Blinds: 5,000/10,000/1,000

Chris "battenfield" Battenfield opened to 20,000 from early position and Stephen "Spresso81" Press made the call on the button. Maxx "Mc4chess" Coleman moved all in from the small blind for 311,416 and action was back on Battenfield who called with a bigger stack. Press quickly got out of the way and the cards were on their backs.

Maxx "Mc4chess" Coleman: A♣K♥
Chris "battenfield" Battenfield: 8♣8♦

It was a classic flip situation, but when the board ran out 10♥6♦3♥9♣7♦, it was the eights that held up to win the flip and eliminate Coleman on the stone-bubble.

The remaining 120 players are now in the money and guaranteed a minimum cash of at least $2,664.
