Zekaj is the Bubble Boy
Level 17
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Genc Zekaj was all-in preflop for roughly 40,000 with Dan Maricuta making the call to trust him bust him on the bubble.
Genc Zekaj: A?K? 
Dan Maricuta: J?J?
It was a classic race, but the 10?6?10? flop didn't improve Zekaj, the 3? meant that only an ace or king on the river would keep the tournament on hand-for-hand. The 6? came on the river and Zekaj had bubbled the tournament.
