Attila Valentai Bubbles, Day 2 Ends With Everyone in the Money
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
There were two players all in for their tournament lives holding pocket aces and got them to hold and survived. The bubble broke on a third table, but not without some excitement.
Mike Brandau opened from middle position to 8,000 before Attila Valentai three-bet all in for 40,000 from the cutoff and got a call from Brandau.
Attila Valentai: 
Mike Brandau: 
Valentai appeared to be safe once a king hit the 
flop. The 
on the turn was another safe card from Valentai who was only fading two outs. However, the 
spiked the river to send Valentai to the rail on the bubble and send Brandau's stack up to 209,500.
Meanwhile, all remaining players will come back for Day 3 with the knowledge that they have made at least the minimum cash of �7,560.
