    Once the bubble burst and the players were in the money there were five fast bustouts, and then play slowed down again. With the current payouts less than $200, all eyes are on the top prize of $4,698 and the players are no longer gambling for $100 bounty chips as there is decent money to be had on the final table.

    On table 35, play folded to Daniel Pepin in late position who has been quite active over the last few orbits, and once again, he threw in a raise, this time to 25,000. Both the cutoff and button folded their hands, and Bill Kontaratos, sitting in the small blind, threw in his bounty chip. Patrick Skrodzki in the big blind looked down at his cards and instantly made the call.

    Bill: 10 of Hearts 10 of Spades
    Patrick: Ace of Spades King of Hearts

    It was a classic coin flip situation, a pocket vs the Big Slick. The flop came Ace of Diamonds Queen of Diamonds 8 of Diamonds  and Kontaratos stood up and started to put his phone away, getting ready to leave as he was covered by Skrodzki. The 10 of Diamonds on the turn however changed everything, giving Kontaratos a set of tens. The river was a brick, and Kontaratos more than doubled up, adding 137,000 from Skrodzki to his stack in addition to the 25,000 from Pepin and the blinds and antes.
