Miracle River Saves Team PokerStars Pro Barry Greenstein on the Bubble
![[user153638]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Nível 15
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The bubble has been a long one with no big confrontations to speak of. Slowly but surely, the small stacks began to whittle away, and it became apparent Team PokerStars Pro Barry Greenstein was the shortest stack in the room.
He nursed his stack patiently, but he just picked a spot to get it in.
After Brian Potashnik had raised to 15,000 from the hijack, Greenstein called off for 8,000 total from the big blind. The camera crews surrounded the table and they waited for the action to finish on all other tables before revealing the hands.
Potashnik: 
Greenstein: 
Greenstein was in dire straits and looking for some help. The 
flop didn't do much for him, and the 
turn left him looking for a snowman on the river.
The other shorter stacks were no doubt hoping for a brick to burst the bubble and ensure themselves a $17,500 payday, but lady luck had other plans as the 
spiked to give Greenstein a small double.

Nikita Neliubin Bubbles the 2018 PCA Main Event
Nível 15
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
He had waited patiently for quite some time, but down to just 5,000 and seated under the gun, Nikita Neliubin made his move and committed the last of his chips.
A lot of players and railbirds gathered because everyone knew that he would be called in at least one spot, as his push was just 1,000 more than the big blind. The media, fans, and other players saw Luc Greenwood in middle position raise to 15,000. This forced out everyone else and they waited for all hands at other tables to finish before showing what they had.
Nikita Neliubin: 
Luc Greenwood: 
Things weren't looking too good for Neliubin and the flop of 
certainly didn't help. Neliubin got up from the table but he returned as he saw the hit the turn, giving him a flush draw.
With everyone holding their breath, the dealer burned and placed the 
on the river. It was too little too late for Neliubin, as he bubbled the 2018 edition of the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
Down to 87 players, all guaranteed $17,500.

Pocket Rockets for Uladzimir Anoshka on the Bubble
Nível 15
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
At the same time Nikita Neliubin busted at one table, there was an all in and call one table over.
It developed when Jianguo Zhou raised to 9,500 from early position and Uladzimir Anoshka three-bet to 32,000 from the small blind. Oliver Weis then four-bet all in from the big, Zhou folded, and Anoshka called off for roughly 130,000.
Weis: 
Anoshka:
It was the cooler everyone had been waiting for, but the at-risk player had the best of it. There would be no bad beat either as the board ran out a clean 
.
