The bubble bursts before it forms

Three players were just eliminated at the same time, on separate tables, taking us from 39 players to 36 players and bursting the bubble. All remaining players are now guaranteed at least 1,000.

Ronnie Espensen (pictured, left centre) was one of those eliminated and as he had the shortest stack of the three he was given 39th place. The other two unlucky bubble boys were Roberto Rivela (38th) and Albert Benet (37th).

Ronnie's 39th place earned him 12 points taking his Tour League total to 100. The only player who can catch him now is Tibor Boros (pictured, stood up). Tibor came into this event on 61 points meaning he will need to finish 11th or higher to snatch the title away from the Dane. He's currently sat on a healthy 155,000 chips.
