Players are in the money

Day 2 of the tournament has been moving at a quick pace since play started at 11 this morning, and the bubble didn’t slow things down that much. There were a few short stacks in the room and by the time the TD announced hand-for-hand play there were a few bubble boy candidates.

One of these – Armah Attoh – managed to more than double his 1 BB stack when he went all-in in early position with what turned out to be pocket jacks which held against 77.

Just two hands later Tyler Reiman shoved his small stack in holding TT – only to be called by pocket Kings, which held. So Tyler is the bubble boy and the rest of the players are in the money.
