Bubble Boy

[user66118]

Action for this hand was folded around to the blinds, where Magnus Petersson opened with a raise to 15,000. John D'Agostino made it 30,000, and Petersson moved all in having Dags covered. He made the call, and the cards were turned up:

Petersson: {K-Spades}

D'Agostino: {A-Clubs}

Petersson was well-behind and needed help to avoid being crippled right on the money bubble. Help found him in a big way, as the flop rolled out {7-Spades}

. Now it was D'Agostino behind, and in danger of being knocked out on the bubble. The turn and river came {4-Hearts}

and

respectively, useless cards for Dags. In his words, there's "No shame in finishing 37th," and that's exactly what has happened to our bubble boy, John D'Agostino.
