Farzad Bonyadi Is The Bubble Boy

Nível 16 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Farzad Bonyadi came into the day with just 27,600, and before the bubble, he had a great day, working his stack up to 241,000. Unfortuantely for him, all of that is gone now, as he became our bubble boy after busting in a huge pot to Nick Schwarmann, who is now over a million and one of our chip leaders.

Action started with Schwarmann raising it up to 12,000 preflop in middle position. Bonyadi made the call in position, and the two went heads up to a flop of . Schwarmann checked to Bonyadi, who tossed out 14,000. Schwarmann went for a check raise to 37,000, and Bonyadi tagged along to see the hit the turn. Schwarmann fired out 54,000 on this card, and Bonyadi again opted to just call. The came on the river, then Schwarmann put pressure on Bonyadi by moving all in, easily having him covered. According to Schwarmann after the hand, Bonyadi snap called the bet.

Play had to be halted for almost five minutes so that all other hands could be finished first. There was only one other hand in the room that saw an all in and a call, but Bonyadi and Schwarmann were the first table up to table their cards.

Bonyadi showed for a pair of jacks, but it was no good, as Schwarmann showed for a rivered broadway straight. Tzu Yen doubled up in his hand, making Farzad Bonyadi the 2013 Main Event bubble boy.

After a couple minutes of Rettenmaier tanking, a yell of "Call time!" came from across the room. Turns out, it was Shawn Sheikhan yelling and he reiterated by yelling again, "Call time!"

The tournament staff immediately got on the radio to tell someone to get Sheikhan to stop getting involved. Sheikhan ended up taking the radio and listening himself to the scolding, where the tournament staff informed Sheikhan that the clock had been paused.

Back to the action at the table, Dzivielevski sat motionless as Rettenmaier tanked and tanked. Eventually, he made the call, and Dzivielevski didn't look happy at all. He showed the for just king high, to which Rettenmaier showed the for trip fours.
