Adventures with Aces on the Bubble

Michael Castaldo was just now all in for his tournament life with pocket aces, and got called by a player who had him covered. His opponent had pocket kings, and Castaldo's aces held up. He's up to 600,000 now.

Meanwhile, Christina Renz has been sitting on the short stack for most of the day. Just now she was in the small blind, and the the table folded around to her. She looked down at her hand, then at the 50,000 or so she had remaining.

Before acting, she had a question. If she turned her cards face up, would it kill the hand? The floor was called over, and it was explained that it wouldn't kill the hand, though she'd face a penalty for exposing her cards.

Renz decided against turning her cards over, and shoved her stack in the middle. The big blind folded, and then she showed her pocket aces.







loooooooolz noobs. how the *** can they fold to a chick with 50k in the sb to begin with tho?

about 5min till next break.

Guess like they did the last 90 minutes... incredible.. after that bubble, 100 players will bust within the next hour!

Maybe 100 will bust in the first 10min after the bubble.

Over on table 154, Kia Hamadani will be all in for just his 500-chip ante on the very next hand! Stay tuned!

Would be lolworthy if 5 people on table limped and checked down imo.

could be, whats the next payout level?

Someone's gonna be all-in for the ante next hand.

lol some donk is gonna be all in blind

in slightly related news: i just got a text from a buddy playing the 1k venetian that jamie gold is playing it, and is wearing themavenVT gear. nice.

That should end the bubble unless an ******* shoves with his aces and guy wins somehow

Kia Hamadani = Bubble Boy

The bubble has finally burst!

Kia Hamadani was all in for his 500-chip ante as Reed Hensel raised it up to 17,000 from the hijack position. Both blinds made the call.

The flop landed {Q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and Hensel fired 20,000 to force folds from the two live players.

Incredibly, Hensel tabled an imaginative {9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, perhaps to the dismay of the remaining 647 players in the room who wanted to burst this bubble. However they didn't need to worry as Kia Hamadani could only find {4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} in the hole as Hensel held the lead with his nine-high.

Hensel sealed the deal when the {9-Diamonds} spiked on the turn and followed it up with the {9-Spades} on the river to take down the pot.

Kia Hamadani is eliminated as the bubble boy as the Amazon Room exploded into a round of applause and cheers.

Hamadani was then introduced to the room as it was announced that he wouldn't quite go home empty-handed as the WSOP and Jack Link's would pay for his buy-in into the 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event!
