Jalsani Eliminated on Deepstack Bubble

Salman Jalsani was short-stacked and patient through hand-for-hand. He picked his spot on the 11th hand of hand-for-hand.

Action folded around to Jalsani in the cutoff. He went all-in for 35,000 on blinds of 5,000/10,000/10,000 and Edward Smith made the call from the small blind.

Jalsani: 7♥7♣
Smith: 8♦6♠
Board: 8♠7♠5♥A♥9♥

The flop gave Smith an open-ended straight draw with top pair to go with it. However, the flop also delivered middle set for Jalsani. Jalsani was still ahead on the flop and on the A♥ turn. It took a while for the 9♥ river to settle in though. Smith straightened out to eliminate Jalsani on the stone bubble.

All remaining players have locked up $450 but the focus is on the first place prize of $8,240.
