Cory Warner Bubbles the 2019 HPT Season XV Championship

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On the eleventh hand of hand-for-hand play, Cory Warner jammed for 26,500 from the cutoff, and Aaron Johnson called in the big blind.

Cory Warner: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Aaron Johnson: {j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Warner hit a pair of queens on the {2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{k-Clubs} flop to take a commanding lead, but Johnson found a glimmer of hope on the {7-Diamonds} turn to pop the bubble.

"Oh, I knew it was comin'!" Matt Higgins said when the {j-Clubs} fell on the river, giving Johnson two pair and leaving Warner as the bubble boy.

The remaining 36 players are in the money, guaranteed a minimum of $5,930, and are now on a one-hour dinner break.
