Bubbling Over with JoyWith just five spots from the money, players scramble to every table that announces "all-in." Play is very tight as the short stacks try to hang on to the top 100.
After a couple of eliminations, the floor stops play to count heads and to everyone's surprise exactly 100 players remain. There's no hand for hand play, no "official" bubble-boy, but lots of celebration.
Shortly after the announcement, Justin Eldeiry (Manalapan, NJ) is smiling like the butcher's dog as the first player to cash.
"I made the money," he says with excitement, "at least I didn't bubble."
Eldeiry takes home $942 and all shorties are now shipping their stacks hoping to double up.
Level 19 (6k/12k/2k ante) is winding down.
