Double Bubble Bursts At PokerStars Red Dragon Flight B

Flight B PokerStars Red Dragon (PHP 25M GTD)

Blinds: 2000/5000 Ante 5000 (Level 16)

With a struggling stack just a little over 10BB, Ngoc Anh Cao took a peek at his hole cards, saw a monster hand and shoved 54,000 all-in from under the gun. With less than 10BB in his stack, Phanlert Sukonthatchartnant also found a big monster and also shoved his last 38,000 from the cut-off. Wooseon Kim would usually keep away, but when he peeked into his cards, he found the biggest monster of all and made the call.

AA vs KK vs JJ. AA wins! Woonseon Kim busts both to have a double bubble burst!

Phanlert Sukonthatchartnant busts out at 40 and is the officual bubble with the shorter stack.

Ngoc Anh Cao busts out at 39th place with the bigger stack, and is technically ITM. Cao just busts earlier than Day 2.
