Hecklen Busts in a Flip

Nível 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

We're that much closer to bursting the money bubble, as we just lost three more players. Henrik Hecklen shoved all in over the top for 76,000 after a raise and two callers, and one player called to put him at risk.

Hecklen held against Felix Bleiker's pocket fives, and the board brought him no help. Frederik Jensen and Jean Paul Zaffran have also been knocked out, and that brings us down to 50 players.
