Double Bubble!

Eric Baldwin tweeted that he went out on the exact bubble, but he was actually one spot early in 173rd place. As it turns out, his tweet was correct after all. We've just lost two players during the hand-for-hand round.
First, Jack Jacovou open-shoved 9,200 with 
from early position. Benjamin Jenkins called him down with 
, and the board ran out 
. Jacovou was out, and he was left to sweat the rest of the action to see if he could get paid.
At an adjacent table, the one hand took several minutes to finish up. The rest of the tables were already done playing when Bradley Augsburger three-bet shoved from the big blind. David Hedley had raised to 4,000 from the button, and he took many minutes to ponder before committing his last ~45,000 chips to the pot with a heavy sigh. He turned up 
, and he was in trouble against the 
of Augsburger. The 
board did nothing to save his tournament life, and he too has been eliminated.
With their exits in 172nd and 171st places, Hedley and Jacovou will chop up $5,207, profiting $103.50 apiece.
It's certainly better than losing $2,500 here today...
