Biz Bubbles the Record-Breaking Main Event
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
It seemed the entire room was waiting for Mustafa Biz to bust, as he had just a single white chip, worth 25,000.
Eventually, Biz stuck his chip in from under the gun and Zhen Chen called in the hijack. Dmitry Gromov then three-bet to 100,000, and Chen folded.
Mustafa Biz: 6?5? 
Dmitry Gromov: 9?7?
"I'm trying to help you," said Gromov as he turned his cards over. The Russian player has been enjoying the bubble and probably wanted to lose this hand so that he could continue to accumulate chips.
However, the board had other ideas as the 2?9?Q?Q?7? runout meant Biz was eliminated on 104th, while everybody else remaining in the field made the money.
