Ganesh Bathmanathan Bubbles in 10th Place (��9,381)

In the end, the bubble hand was somewhat of a swift, uneventful affair, Ganesh Bathmanathan pushing all in from the hijack with {A-Spades}{7-Hearts} and being quickly called by Richard Allen in the small blind with {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}.

If three outs wasn't gloomy enough, it deteriorated to two following the {J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop, and despite the {2-Spades} on the turn offering chances of a split pot, they failed to emerge on a raggy {4-Clubs} river and Bathmanathan was gone.

He entertained, but he was hungry for victory, and the final table will be a quieter affair without him. He was visibly deflated in departure, but shook the hand of each of his opponents, and quietly slipped away. Meanwhile, a relieved final nine exhaled all the tension of the day, and started bagging their chips with a tired, but elated smile etched on their faces.

Pop.
