On the final hand before the bubble burst, Sebastien Labaron raised from under the gun and Antoine Goutard moved all in for 70,000, which Labaron called. Players flipped over their cards, with Goutard at risk.
Antoine Goutard: A♦A♣
Sebastien Labaron: 9♦7♦
The board ran out 4♦A♠Q♥8♣J♦ to give Goutard a set of aces and the double up.
As the hand completed, the tournament director announced that there was another all in and call. The problem, from the perspective of the dozens of journalists and photographers, was that the hand was taking place in a tent a couple of minutes walk away from the main room. Peiced together by the joint efforts of floor staff and media, the hand was as follows...
Christian Ly raised from the button and Htati Zakaria already had his remaining chips in the middle in the big blind. The two players flipped over their cards.
Zakaria Htati: 9♣6♥
Christian Ly: K♣6♣
The board ran out 7♣J♠Q♥K♦A♦ to give Ly a pair of kings on the turn. That was it. Htati was eliminated and the bubble was burst. Cheers and claps sounded out from the main room as players celebrated making it to Day 2 and into the money.
