The Day 1c Bubble Bursts in Extraordinary Fashion
Oct 25, 2024
Jawed Abdulkarim is forced all-in from the big blind and his 1,000 chip is the only thing he can win as the big blind ante takes priority. All players fold, Florence Allera even jokingly asks if she can fold from the small blind but that is obviously not the case.
They all-in brings Allera’s 
against the 
of Abdulkarim. The 
board brings a split pot, Abdulkarim cannot bust and gets his single chip back.
Nothing major happens on all other tables, Abdulkarim is forced all-in from the small blind for the very same 1,000. Everyone folds, and he now has the chance to win the full 16,000 big blind ante of Rabah Ait Abdelmalek plus double his single chip.
Jawed Abdulkarim: 
Rabah Ait Abdelmalek: 
The roller coaster runout of 
gives Abdulkarim the double and more than one big blind, now on the button! !”I am dead,” Slimane Mameche jokes behind him as he is forced all-in for the last 7,000 (via big blind ante once again) on a different table.

Now, during this third consecutive hand with a forced all-in, there is more action happening!
Julien Martini jams the button and Armand Muratoglu calls all-in for 136,000 in the small blind while Mameche is all-in anyways. They run this all-in first.
Slimane Mameche: 
Armand Muratoglu: 
Julien Martini: 
Board: 
Armand Muratoglu – 279,000 (17 bb)
Julien Martini – 67,000 (4 bb)
Slimane Mameche – Eliminated on the Day 1c Bubble
Mameche bubbles, and there are two more all-in showdowns to go!
Slimane Mameche
Mehdi Hammani is all-in against Kevin Dedner on a flop of and shows the 
for the overpair. Dedner has 
but cannot hit on the 
runout.
Last but not least, Christian Lovrencevic is all-in with 
against the 
of Stephen Song. The 
board provides aces full right away. 
Mehdi Hammadi
If Hammani and Lovrencevic would have lost their all-ins, they would not have split a Day 2 min-cash as they have to bag up chips in order to receive a cash prize according to French gaming regulations.
Anyways, that is all from a fascinating bubble here in Paris. The full chip counts of all 37 survivors will follow shortly.
