In Hand #6 of hand-for-hand play on the Money Bubble, there were two all-in-and-call situations.

On the Featured Table, David Adam-Castrillo moved all in under the gun for 1,000, Andrew Moreno raised from the button to 20,000, and both blinds folded.

Adam-Castrillo turned over Ad8h, and needed it to hold to stay alive against Moreno’s Ac2c. Adam-Castrillo’s hand held up, and he multiplied his stack by 14 times (technically called a quattuordecuple).

Unfortunately for Adam-Castrillo, he still didn’t have enough to pay the big blind and the big blind ante, so he’d be forced all in on the next hand anyway.

Out in the main tournament room, Nick Scholz got his short stack all in with AsJd against AdQd, but the board came Ah6d6c4dKc to chop the pot.

On to Hand #7.

With 148 players remaining from a field of 1,162, the average chip stack is around 393,000 (49 big blinds). The final 146 players will finish in the money, with a min-cash worth $6,400.

Action will continue tonight until the end of Level 20 (around 12:20 am).
