Nowling Eliminates Key on Bubble

On blinds of 5K/10K/10K, Matthew Key moved all-in for 54,000 from UTG+1. Action folded around to Jeff Nowling in the small blind and Nowling called.

Key: AsKd (all-in)
Nowling: 7c7d
Board: Jc7s5cKsTs

The flop was disastrous for Key. Nowling hit a set and eliminated Key.

Key's last hope was to split the min cash with another player if there was an elimination on the opposite table. Raju Gadhiraju was at risk with eights against AsJs but held on Tc2s2dKd9d.

Key was eliminated on the stone bubble and the remaining 14 players are now in the money with $400 locked up. There will be two pay jumps before the final seven players advance to Monday's 4:00pm Day Two Restart.
