Two busts on bubble time

A raised pot, Jose Colada bet jam all-in for 76,000 with K♠ Q♦ on flop Q♠ 5♦ 8♠ and ran right into Joseph Talamayan’s better A♠ Q♥ . No king on either turn 6♠ or river 9♣ meant Colada is knocked out from the tournament one spot short of the money.
On to another table, hijack Lee Suya open shoved 81,000 in with 7♣ 7♠ and was quickly called by big blind Bonifacio Mondalo with A♥ A♠ . Bonifacio cruised through board Q♦ K♠ T♣ Q♣ 2♦ and collected the pot whilst eliminating Lee from the Main Event games.
