Event 5: Pop Goes the Bubble

$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 18: 4k/8k/1k ante

There was a little confusion on the money bubble as tournament staffed paused action before asking dealers to stand when their hand was complete. Iryna Ostapchuk was all-in with two callers and they both checked it down to the river with the board reading Kh4h2s7dKs

The 7-seat rolled over As7h, good enough after it out-flopped Ostapchuk’s AdTc.

She was asked to stay at her table while the field was counted down and it was determined that instead of being the bubble girl, she actually earned a min-cash for $363 for finishing 126th.

Nancy Birnbaum, Angel Vu, TJ Shulman, Dinh Nguyen, and Elliott ‘Comrade’ Zaydman are a few others who made it into the money.
