Event 2: Jon Heneghan Bursts the Bubble

Level 17:  4,000/8,000 with a 8,000 ante

Jon Heneghan stacks bubble chips

The money bubble took nearly an entire level to burst, playing past the end of Level 16 and another 15 minutes into Level 17. On the final hand, Jon Heneghan was heads-up to a Jd9h4c flop and he bet 16,000 from the small blind.

The cutoff player moved all in for 67,500 total and Heneghan called.

Heneghan: Jh3d
Cutoff: QcJs

Heneghan’s hand was in trouble and the cutoff was looking at a double until the 3s turn hit the board. Heneghan made jacks up and the Ad river locked up the hand, sent him the pot, and put the field in the money.

Tournament staff rolled back the clock and sent players on a 30-minute dinner break.

Event 2: Bubble Near Dinner

Level 16:  3,000/6,000 with a 6,000 ante
Players Remaining:  15 of 134

With a little over 10 minutes remaining before dinner break, the Seniors Event dropped down to 15 players to put them on the money bubble.

Tournament staff paused the clock to begin hand-for-hand play and they will continue until one player is eliminated. If they get to the end of Level 16, they will keep playing until the bubble is burst to go on dinner.

Event 2: Four Tables Remain

Level 14:  2,000/4,000 with a 4,000 ante
Players Remaining:  29 of 134

Blinds are up and tables are out. The Seniors Event is down to the last four tables of the tournament with 29 players remaining and only 14 will take home some money this evening.

With three more levels until the dinner break, there’s a good chance they hit the bubble before taking a walk.

Event 2: Jon Heneghan Leads After Break

Jon Heneghan

Cards are back in the air for the Seniors Event with 34 players remaining, 14 of them getting paid, and Jon Heneghan leads the way. He is up to 336,500 after a dozen levels and the frontrunner as they edge towards the bubble.

They will have a dinner break at the end of Level 20 so it will be race between that and making the money.

Event 2: Carlos Evangelista Running Good

Carlos Evangelista

Catching up with the Seniors Event now that the field is settled and everyone working their way through the day. The tournament is down to the last six tables with a color up break in the near future.

We caught up to Carlos Evangelista continuing a good day. He was in the process of knocking a player out with AsKh versus AdQd to build a big stack up to 227,700. Evangelista began his series with a nice run, finishing 24th out of 504 in the opening event.
