Higgins Bubbles in Brutal Fashion
Neil Higgins raised to 12,000 from the cutoff with Tomas Flanagan calling on the button before Aidan Quinlan shoved from the big blind with the covering stack. Higgins had roughly 200,000 behind and after thinking it over for a few minutes, made the call for his tournament life on the direct bubble. Flanagan folded and the cards were revealed.
Neil Higgins : A♥K♠ 
Aidan Quinlan : J♥J♠
It was a classic race until the dealer slowly fanned out the A♠2♠6♥ flop, propelling Higgins into the lead with top pair. If Higgins could fade a jack, then the tournament would remain on the bubble.
However, the J♣ hit the turn, giving Quinlan a set and leaving Higgins drawing dead. The entire tournament room erupted in celebration as everyone realized they had made it into the money.
The river came an irrelevant 9♠ and Higgins was the bubble boy of the 2024 International Poker Open Main Event.
