Winzeler Leaves Early
A bit too early.
Max Silver opened to 11,000 under the gun, and Hans Winzeler three-bet shoved for his last 50,000 flat. Silver has plenty of chips to call with a hand like 
, and that's just what he did with a chance to bring the field to the bubble. Winzeler was relieved to see a medium-strength hand shown down, and his 
had him poised for the double up.
And then came the disastrous 
flop. Silver keeps the run-good alive, out-flopping his opponent to leave him two cards from the door. Winzeler stood up and tucked his chair under the table as the turn came the blank 
, and he had half his body turned away from the table when the dealer burned and turned the final card.
River: 
Ka-boom! Nobody was more surprised to see the two-outer than Winzeler, and this one has saved his tournament life. "It's my first set in the whole tournament," he said as he raked in the double. He's back to 111,500 now, and still shaking his head from that sick sweat.

Bubble Time
Nível 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
We are now hand for hand at the 2011 WSOPE Main Event. One new rule this year:
1. No sweating policy: players are not allowed to go to another table during hand for hand.
A one round penalty will be incurred should a player contravene the new rule.
Still Bubbling
Nível 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
We've played four hands of the bubble, and we're still holding strong at 65 players.
In the most significant action we've seen so far, Jake Cody opened the last pot to 10,500, and Shawn Buchanan flatted in the cutoff. The two of them have been firing back and forth at each other lately, but Freddy Deeb snuck into the pot with a reraise to 43,500 total. That folded Cody without incident, but Buchanan wasn't going anywhere. He asked Deeb how much he had behind -- about 270,000 -- then announced an all-in shove for 184,000 total. Now it was Deeb's turn in the tank, and he made Buchanan squirm for quite a long while.
"I didn't scare you when I said I had you covered?" he asked at one point.
About a minute later, he spoke up again. "All right. I'll let you live. Go ahead, take it." And with that, Deeb mucked.
On to the fifth hand!
Damage to Rijkenberg's Ship
Nível 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Start-of-day chip leader Constant Rijkenberg has just lost a monster pot on the bubble. We'll give you the details (including who won it) in just a moment.
The Biggest Hand of The Tournament So Far: Moorman v Rijkenberg
When you are playing 2,500/5,000 blinds you do not expect a 600,000 stack and a 400,000 stack to be involved in the bubble, but amazingly we did and this is how the hand went down.
Chris Moorman raised to 12,000 in the hijack seat and Constant Rijkenberg three-bet to 31,000 from the big blind. The flop was 
and Rijkenberg went straight at Moorman with a 25,000 bet. All eyes averted to Moorman and he raised to 56,000 and Rijkenberg called immediately. When the dealer placed the 
on the felt Rijkenberg checked and Moorman bet 114,000. By this time the media started to realise that this was getting serious. Rijkenberg knew it was and he made the call. The last card to be snapped on to the table was the . Rijkenberg once again checked and Moorman moved all of his chips across the line (229,000).
The media invaded the table and all you could hear was the sound of clicking cameras. Rijkenberg counted out the bet and looked at what the potential damage could be (he would have been left with 190k) and then he made the call. Moorman turned over 
with the confidence of a man at the very top of his game and Rijkenberg looked sick, before quietly sliding his cards, face down, to the dealer.

Barry Greenstein is The Bubble Boy
Barry Greenstein was in the cut-off when he moved all-in for 28,000 and Brian Roberts was seated in the big blind and he made the call. Both players had to wait patiently whilst the rest of the tables finished their hands. While they were waiting Greenstein told Arnaud Mattern that his girlfriend had sent him a text to say that she had a strange feeling that he was going to bubble, unfortunately she would be proven right.
Showdown
| Roberts |  |
| Greenstein | |
Board: 
The flush hit on the turn sending the veteran out in 65th place. Greenstein got to his feet and, ever the gentlemen, signed a copy of his book and handed it to Roberts before leaving.

Nível 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
While Barry Greenstein was all in and waiting for the showdown at his table during the bubble hand, Giacomo Maisto raised to 11,000 and Tony G three-bet him to 25,000. Maisto called and the hand went to a flop while Greenstein and his table had to wait out the showdown until this hand was complete.
The flop came down 
and Maisto check-called a bet of 25,000 from Tony G. After the landed on the turn, Maisto checked and Tony G bet again. Maisto folded and Tony G showed the .
