No Bubble Needed
When all dealers were standing up, the floors counted all players remaining. There were 646 of them. And as there were 646 places paid, all players were in the money.
At one table, one player was standing up as he had been eliminated on the last hand. According to the table, Ben Yu opened to 15,000 in middle position. Jeppe Bisgaard called from the hijack, as did the button and the big blind.
The dealer revealed a flop of 7♣Q♥10♦ on the table. Yu continued to 15,000, and Bisgaard called once again. But the button raised to 85,000, keeping only 10,000 chips with him. The big blind folded, as well as Yu. But Bisgaard called.
Button: KxQx
Bisgaard: K♣K♠
A queen, and only a queen, could save the player at risk. But it was the 8♥ and the 9♦ on the river, and the player has been eliminated outside of the money. At this table, Chan Saechao reached the money with a mere 4,000 chips or half of a blind.
