    After a very short hand-for-hand period, the Closer was sent in the money! All sitting players are now guaranteed $1,100 and gunning for the $50K top prize!

    The bubble hand had a bit of spice to it, as it was orchestrated by Alex Normandin who pulled a brilliant bluff catcher against a very courageous Adil Morkos. Morkos had bet 40K on the turn, saving just under 100K for the river battle, and Normandin called.

    Full board: 6 of Hearts Jack of Clubs 2 of Clubs 8 of Hearts 4 of Diamonds

    On the river, Morkos took a minute, and shoved his remaining chips in the middle. Normandin tanked for a while, with a lot of spectators around the table waiting to be sent in the money. Normandin made the call, and the cards were revealed:

    Morkos: Ace of Diamonds 7 of Spades
    Normandin: 9 of Clubs 9 of Diamonds

    That was one gutsy bluff, and one bright call! Congratulations everybody!

    Alex Normandin
