Aksoy Eliminated; Bubble Time

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With the shortest stack of only 50,000 chips, Tinay Aksoy needed some luck to reach the money. Unfortunately for him, luck wasn't on his side. When he moved all in from an early position, Hassan Barakat, sitting on the button, made the call.

Tinay Aksoy: 5?5?
Hassan Barakat: A?J?

Barakat hit an ace directly on the flop A?9?K?Q?8?, securing the best pair and sending Aksoy to the rail. Following his elimination, the clock was stopped to initiate hand-for-hand play.
