Chen's Bust Brings About the Bubble
Limit Hold'em
Bill Chen just fell in 34th place, which means we're just on player from the money.
In Chen's final hand, he three-bet all in from the big blind for 12,000 total after Konstantin Puchkov had opened from middle position. The Russian called.
Puchkov: 
Chen: 
Chen got it in good and seemed to be in good shape on the [104d3d] flop. Unfortunately for Chen, the dealer burned and turned the 
to give Puchkov a bigger pair. Chen needed a lucky seven on the river to stay alive, but it was not meant to be as the 
plopped down.
Hand-for-hand play is now in effect. The remaining 33 players will play until the bubble bursts. If it takes longer than the 24 minutes left in Level 18, so be it. If it break before then, play will conclude when the level expires.
