Level 15:  2,000/4,000 with a 4,000 ante
Players Remaining:  16 of 155

With the average stack sitting at nearly 50 big blinds, it was no surprise that the bubble took a long long time to play out. To be precise, it took 17 hands before an all in was even called to put someone at risk, more than one full level going two minutes per hand.

The one that got there was a four-way pot to a flop. The small blind checked, Alex Ivan bet 12,000, one player called, a short-stack called all in for 7,000, and the small blind folded. That left two live players who checked down the turn and river.

Ivan tabled for jacks up, the other live player showed for a busted flush draw, and the short stacked player had . He missed his flopped flush draw and was eliminated on the bubble putting everyone else in the money.
