Ignat Liviu Bubbles EPT London
![[user76023]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Nível 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Despite the constant tanking, high numbers of players still in and the general media scrum that makes a player feel like they're about to be afforded their own story in the British tabloid press, the bubble has burst at the first attempt.
Before going hand for hand, Ignat Liviu had moved all in over the top of a raise from Marco Caza, the Canadian making a call.
Liviu was all in for around 70,000 and Caza had the Romanian well-covered.
Liviu: 
Caza: 
The flop was 
- blank and unconnected enough that Liviu was now the clear favourite for the hand. The 
changed nothing and Caza needed one of six outs to knock out the Romanian. The 
then appeared on the river to an audible groan from the watching crowd. Everyone else is now guaranteed a minimum payout of £7,750.

Bubble Play With Higgins
Nível 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Bo Daniel Nilsson opened for 9,000 but when he faced a three-bet of 25,000 from Simon Higgins and it got back to him he sighed and folded. Higgins had more chips than him and he simply didn’t want to risk it all with his hand.
Higgins opened the next hand for 8,000 and perhaps PokerStars Team Online player Christian Favale, who had more chips than Higgins, thought he would do the same and raised him to 42,000. Higgins though decided to make the call and they went to a flop of 
.
Favale had position but Higgins led out for 32,000 and got called. The turn card was the 
and both players checked. When the river card came the 
Higgins bet 60,000 for about half his stack and Favale pushed his cards away.

Tankathon
Nível 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Just two spots from the money and Mateusz Zbikowski is tanking for several minutes in each and every hand. No-one at his table seems to mind or has complained, Sam Trickett and Jabran Zahid are both very short as well but they're not dwelling for very long in their hands.
On several other tables it's noticeable that one or two other players are doing the same but unless someone complains, the number of hands per hour will be very low - at least until the bubble bursts.
