A crowd was gathering around Table 352, and when we made our way over we discovered that Bryan "The Icon" Micon was all in against 1996 WSOP Main Event champ Huck Seed. We're not sure when the chips went in, but it appeared to be on either fourth or fifth street.
The cards were a bit jumbled from the dealer, but here is how it looked as near as we could reconstruct.
Seed: / /
Micon: / /
Micon showed his seventh street immediately, which did not improve his 7-6-5-4-3 low. Seed was drawing live to any three, four and seven, and he sweated the card. When he saw that it was a three-across diamond, he know it was either the seven or eight as the was already exposed. That meant he had a 50/50 shot of eliminating Micon.
"Do you want insurance on the money," Seed offered before looking at the card. Micon, who was up out of his seat with his backpack slung over his shoulder, politely declined and said he didn't need the money that bad.
Seed then lifted the last card high and look at the same time as everyone else... the . Seed hit the right card to make a 7-6-5-2-A low and send Micon home as the bubble boy.

Avinash Kataria was the short stack on the bubble, and he finally got his chips in against Phil Hellmuth when he bet his last 2,000 on fourth street.
Kataria: / /
Hellmuth: / /
Per custom, Hellmuth showed seventh street first and revealed an 8-7-5-3-2 low. That meant Kataria needed to hit, and he did as a gave him a winning 6-5-4-3-A low. Kataria was clearly excited and his stack was infused with new life.

Razz isn't exactly a fast-paced game; as such, action has been slow here on the bubble. Sooner or later it's going to burst, and we'll be here when it does.

Due to two eliminations on the outer tables the field is now down to 41 players, which means we are one spot off the money. Hand-for-hand play has been initiated. One more player will leave empty handed, and in the process the top 40 will be guaranteed a minimum payday of $2,575.
We picked up the action on fourth street when Kevin Iacofano bet 1,500 and Brandon Cantu called him. When Iacofano found a on fifth and Cantu paired a , the former fired out 3,000. It did the trick as Cantu collected his cards and tossed them to the dealer.
Iacofano: (x-x) /
Cantu: (x-x) / fold
