Event 13: You're All Winners

$350 + $50 Big Stack NLH

Jason Ginex (North Avalon, NY) Cripples Bubble

Normally Jason Ginex would snap call an open shove holding KK. But we've been playing hand-for-hand for close to a half-hour now. Everybody wants to make the money. Do you fold kings on the bubble? Could you? After a healthy tank session, Ginex decides to call.

Jason Ginex K♣ K vs. Opponent's 7♣ 7

Board runs: 2♣ A♣ 9♣ 2 6. Kings hold up.

Opponent had Jason covered by 7500 and was forced all in the very next hand as the big blind was 8000.

Surprisingly the entire table folds around to Justin Friedman in the small blind who calls without looking.

Opponent never looked either and so flipped over one card, the K . Justin flips an A♠ which caused opponent to moan, about to accept his fate.

Board ran: 3 3 2♣ A Q♠. Kickers never played - Opponent's 5 vs. Justin's 9.

And with that the bubble fled the felt and the remaining 36 have reached part of the $130,900 Total Buy-In.
