The end of the level was reached without a single all in on the bubble. The 75-minute dinner break will be tense for the short stacks.
While you wait check out our video on the Royal Melbourne Croquet Club:
The remaining 73 players have returned from the dinner break and cards are in the air. Since hand-for-hand play is still in effect, the tournament will carry on with Level 16 (2,500/5,000/500).
On the 
flop, Ryan Yu was all in for 141,000 with the 
against the 
for Jan Suchanek. The turn was the 
, and the river was the 
. Both kept Yu in front, and he avoided an unlucky bubble elimination in the 2015 Aussie Millions Main Event.

It took just one hand post dinner to burst the bubble and the unfortunate soul who'll walk away with nothing is James Kennedy.
He was down to fumes and called all in from the small blind after Victor Teng raised from under the gun. Bryan Huang and one other player called as well but folded after Teng continued for 22,000 on an 
flop.
Teng: 
Kennedy: 
The hand was over by time the 
came on the turn and applause rang out around the room, mainly from players congratulating themselves. All those remaining are guaranteed AU$15,000.
In the first hand after the bubble burst, action folded around to Don Mishra in the cutoff and he put in a raise. Ian Bobbin, who was extremely short stack, then moved all in for 18,000 from the small blind. Mishra didn't seem excited about it, but given he had so much in he opted to make the call.
Mishra: 
Bobbin: 
Mishra needed a ton of help if he hoped to eliminate Bobbin, and he got it as the 
flop delivered him the nuts.
"Sorry," Mishra offered as the dealer completed the board with the turn and 
river.
"Better 72nd than 73rd I guess," Bobbin said optimistically before making his way to the payout desk to collect AU$15,000.
