Event 1 (Day 2): Event 1 On Final Table Bubble

"Battles At The Beach"
Event 1 ($175 No Limit Hold'em $125,000 GTD)
Level 31 (Blinds 60,000/120,000/20,000)
Total Entries: 1,301
Players Remaining: 11

With the biggest stack only (40) big blinds deep, it was inevitable that action would pick back up once again.  After action folded to Thomas Gari, he'd shove for 1,350,000 from the button.  What he didn't expect is to walk into to huge hands out of the blinds...as Evan Braunstein re-shoved for 1,500,000, and Lisa Teebagy called out of the big (Lisa was the chip leader).

Gari: A♠ 10♥
Braunstein: Q♣ Q♠
Teebagy: A K

Runout: 6 10♣ 4♣ 2♣ 9

Braunstein's pocket queens would hold, eliminating Thomas Gari from the tournament, and essentially earning Evan the triple-up. 

Evan Braunstein - 4,500,000 (37.5 BB)
Lisa Teebagy - 3,700,000 (31 BB)
