During hand-for-hand play on the Money Bubble, Scotter Clark min-raised from the button to 12,000, Darin Utley called from the small blind, and the player in the big blind called all in for 12,000. Any further betting would create a side pot.

Both players checked to the turn on a board of AhAcQd2c, Clark bet about 12,000, and Utley quickly folded.

The big blind showed Jc2s for two pair, aces and deuces, but Clark turned over AsQs for a flopped full house, aces full of queens.

The big blind was drawing dead, and the meaningless river card was the Kh. Clark won the pot with his full house to burst the Money Bubble and eliminate the player in the big blind.

Scotter Clark  –  155,000  (26 bb)
Darin Utley  –  175,000  (29 bb)

With 20 players remaining from a field of 159, the average chip stack is around 159,000 (27 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $800 each.
