Evan Benton: A♦7♦ All in
Yang Lei: A♣J♣

Benton was dominated and the 9♥2♥5♠9♣A♥ runout couldn't save him, sending him to the rail.

William Souther raised to 25,000 from the cutoff and the small blind moved all in for 158,000. Souther made the call.

Small Blind: Q♥Q♠ All in
William Souther: A♦8♦

The small blind was out in front but the A♥4♦3♦8♥6♦ runout saw Souther crack queens to help burst the bubble.

The two bubble boys will split the 168th place prize of $3,923.
