Buzgon Crippled; The Bubble Bursts
Hand #1: In Level 24 with blinds of 8,000/16,000 and an ante of 2,000, action folded to Daniel "leinad" Buzgon in the small blind and he jammed for just under half a million effective. "xxx6395200" was in the big blind and called.

The board ran out to give "xxx6395200xxx" quads en route to an easy double. Buzgon then doubled through "xxx6395200xxx" on the following hand to get a little bit of breathing room, while "Wacek18" found themselves at risk for their tournament life on the adjacent table.
Hand #2: "Wacek18" open-jammed under the gun for 82,000 and received a call from "King_Icon" in the cutoff. All remaining players folded.

After holding the chip lead through a solid portion of the late registration period, "Wacek18" needed to hit a three outer to stay alive and avoid becoming the bubble finisher in the tournament. Instead, they watched the board appear 100% in their opponent's favor, coming to officially burst the bubble with "Wacek18" finishing in 15th place.
