Lukasz the unlikely bubble boy

The PPT blog has seen some fairly straightforward bubbles since the ParadisePoker Tour began back in 2009. This was not one of them.

Ever the man in the thick of the action, Lukasz Gebica went from big stack to out in one fatal encounter with the red hot Tibor Boros.

Having knocked out his compatriot and friend Zoltan Kapitany earlier in the evening, it seemed Gebica was destined to duel with Boros, and it was the latter than emerged the victor.

The Polish ParadisePoker pro had raised from the button holding 10♣10♥ and when Boros defended his big blind with a hefty 3-bet, Lukasz tanked before committing the rest of his stack.

Tibor snap-called with Q♥Q♣ and while post-flop couldn't match the drama of pre - coming 8♣6♥J♠-5♥-8♦ - it was Gebica's last action at the PPT Prague.
