After more than an hour of hand-for-hand play, the remaining players in the Strangers in the Night have finally reached the money.

It is not uncommon for the bubble to drag out in some tournaments, however, today’s bubble was truly exceptional. Although many players had spots where they were at risk, the at-risk player kept coming out ahead. Until, finally, a battle of the blinds sent a short stack to the rail. In this case, it was looking good for the short stack both before the flop and on the flop, as he managed to make a pair, however, the turn brought in the bigger stack’s gutshot straight draw and burst the money bubble in the process.
