Event 8: 10th Place - Lopes (Bubble Boy)

$300 + $40 Seniors NLH (Re-Entry)

Joe "Black Cat" Lopes (West Creek, NJ)
$0
Blinds 3k/6k/500 ante

It doesn't take long for the Seniors to hit the money as Joe Lopes is the unfortunate bubble boy.

Lopes looks at one card and moves all in for 30k and Mike Makaryan calls for almost half of his 70k stack. Mike Stein has both players covered and moves all in on top.

It folds around to Makaryan who goes in the tank and eventually folds.

Lopes: A (the card he saw) 8
Stein: 99

The board runs clean for Stein to bust Lopes in 10th place.  As the hand finishes, Makaryan is frustrated and annoyed saying, "I should have shoveled," instead of calling Lopes' all in.

Makarayn says he folded pockets 10s and would've had the winner.

Lopes doesn't earn any money as bubble boy, but gets a lot of condolences from the remaining nine players.
