Hinkle Eliminated as the Bubble Bursts
Niveau 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Radoslav Stoyanov moved all in from late position and Grant Hinkle called from the button, with his life on the line, as the tournament was being played in hand-for-hand until the bubble could be reached.
Grant Hinkle: A♥K♦
Radoslav Stoyanov: J♦5♦
The flop gave Stoyanov some outs for the upset, 10♦4♦8♥. The turn looked like it might save Hinkle from elimination, but a gut-wrenching 6♦ hit the river, and after the other hands around the room were completed it was announced that the bubble had burst.
A player at Stoyanov's table said, partly with relief at making the money, partly in fear, "If you're going to have that kind of luck, I don't want to be at this table."
