HomeAfter nearly an hour, the bubble finally burst! Taking the unfortunate fall was Mark Jerick Almusajin. On a board 2♦ 10♣ 2♠ 6♣, Almusajin was all in with Joseph Talamayan right there to make him sweat.
Almusajin A♣ 10♦ top pair
Talamayan J♥ J♠ overpair
The river 3♥ and ended the long bubble round. Almusajin won’t be going home empty-handed though, he availed of the protection and will receive his buy-in back in the form of APT tournament credits.

There was another all in called at a separate table. If two players bust out during the bubble round the rule is they’d split the lowest cash.
Joonwon Lee had it all in on a board of A♠ 4♣ 3♠ 5♦. He turned over A♦ Q♦ and faced Craig Landry who had A♣ K♦. Looking like Lee was going to get tagged as well in this round, the river had other plans with a Q♠ saving him from elimination. This sent a loud cheer all around the room with all the players stunned and Lee more than ecstatic.
Congratulations to all the players in the money!!
