Four All-In-and-a-Calls; Bubble Bursts

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Hand-for-hand play was installed two places off the money, and in the first hand there were no fewer than four all-in-and-a-calls. All showdowns were postponed until every table had stopped dealing.

Hand #1

First one up was Stanley Lee, who had open-shoved all in for 60,500 from the cutoff. Javier Zarco called the shove from the small blind, barely having Lee covered.

Stanley Lee: {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Javier Zarco: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

Lee needed to catch a deuce but the {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{A-Spades} board left him drawing dead by the time the turn had arrived.

Hand #2

After a raise by Mihai Manole first to act, Luc Greenwood jammed the button for 51,500 and Manole called. Once the previous hand was done, the camera crew rushed by to film the showdown.

Luc Greenwood: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Mihai Manole: {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The board came {Q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Greenwood failed to connect, missing out on his overcards and flushdraw to ensure that the bubble would burst.

Hand #3

Kristen Bicknell opened to 17,000 with 8,000 behind and Ramon Miquel Munoz called in the small blind. The remaining chips went in after the {K-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs} flop and the following cards were turned over.

Kristen Bicknell: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}
Ramon Miquel Munoz: {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}

Neither the {5-Hearts} turn nor the {Q-Hearts} river were a threat and Bicknell doubled.

Hand #4

Matt Glantz, in middle position, moved all in for his last 46,000. Brian Altman, in the big blind, called.

Matt Glantz: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Brian Altman: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

The board ran {10-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Glantz doubled up.

With that, both Lee and Greenwood were out, dropping the field down to 127. All remaining players are in the money and guaranteed a money finish of at least $17,620.
