Lehoussine and Cimbolas Eliminated; Lim Survives

Level 18 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

There were three all-in and call at the same time, potentially ensuring that the bubble would burst.

As fate would have it, Day 1a joint bubble boy Chin Wei Lim was all-in for 28,000 out of the dead button and called by Clemen Deng in the big blind.

Chin Wei Lim: J?10?
Clemen Deng: 9?6?

The 7?3?2?J?A? board locked up the double for Lim on the turn, and he avoided the Day 1a fate when he was eliminated on the bubble.

One table over, Matas Cimbolas was all-in for 166,000 on the button and looked up by Rayan "Beriuzy" Chamas.

Matas Cimbolas: K?K?
Rayan Chamas: J?J?

Cimbolas was way out in front and had both suits covered. There was no threat on the A?5?2? flop but the J? turn put a dagger into Cimbolas' hopes of survival. Last but not least, the A? river only improved Chamas to a full house and Cimbolas bowed out two spots away from the end of the night.

Last but not least, there was a lot of confusion about a possible option to reraise on table 30 when Karim Lehoussine had been all-in already. He had jammed for 22,000 from under the gun and Serhii Holodiuk min-raised in the cutoff. Russell Dohan called in the small blind and it took a while to sort out the correct amount for the side pot.

The two active players then checked down the A?8?4?5?Q? board. Holodiuk tabled the 10?8?, Dohan had the 9?7? and Lehoussine's K?4? was no good.

With two seat open and a double, the field was reduced to 99 hopefuls and a table broke to balance ahead of the stone-cold money bubble.
