The Monster Stack field was in no hurry to get their chips in the middle on the money bubble. Besides Theo Lawson’s early double, the rest of the playout included 15 hands to get the field down into the money. They even crossed into Level 20 during that time.
On the 15th hand, Steve Novak moved all in for 27,000 and it folded around to Ari Engel in the big blind. He had 8,000 committed with only 6,000 in his hand. After thinking it out and seeing no other all-ins called at the other tables, Engel put them in the middle.

The eight-time WSOP Circuit champ ran into a bubble monster, found a little sweat after the flop, but missed the turn and turn to exit on the money bubble.
