Close but no Eliminations

Tony Lawrence moves all in for his last 112,000 and is called by a shorter stacked Pablo Chacra

Alfredo Castellot is all in and called by the bigger-stacked Anthony Mero

One elimination will bust the bubble.

Lawrence - JJ
Chacra - AA

Castellot - A♠J♠
Mero - 99

For the Lawernce/Chacra hand, the board runs out 9-6-8-4-T, Chacra holds and only then do the two players realize that Lawrence has Chacra covered, that there's no elimination and that Lawrence has 27,500 left.

For the Castellot/Mero hand, the board runs out 6♠-8♠-3x-2x-9♠, a rivered straight and Castellot survives as well.
