It’s the bubble!

2014/09/02 10:13pm by Playground Poker
Tournament: Event 12 - $500 + $50 No Limit Hold'em Deepstack

With the recent elimination of Jonathan G in 21st place, we are now just one elimination away from bursting the money bubble. The next player eliminated will be the last of this field to go home empty handed, and the remaining 19 players are guaranteed at least a $1,000 prize, with the opportunity to win the grand prize of $21,500! Jason Gracie and Michael MacDonald are the short stacks at the moment, both holding stacks of just under 10 big blinds. Hand-for-hand is in play…
