In the Money!
The money bubble has officially been broken and our bubble boy was indeed the short-stacked Greg Lee.
PokerStars Team Pro David Williams raised from the cutoff to 3,700 and Lee shoved all in for a total of 4,200 from the big blind. Williams called but the players had to wait until play had finished at the other tables before they could reveal their cards. During the ensuing wait there was quite a bit of friendly banter going on. Williams told the table, "Don't worry, he's probably doubling up... I got my hand caught in the cookie jar."
A player at another table was relaying the pending action to his tablemates and said "Yeah he [Lee] is all in, but David Williams called and he runs really good!"
Lee said with a smile on his face, "I've been folding for nine years!" and finally action on the other tables ceased and the cards were revealed.

Williams:
Lee's pair of fives was in the lead preflop. The flop came giving Williams a straight draw. The on the turn changed nothing, but the on the river gave Williams a pair of queens and the knockout blow to Lee.
A good sport, Lee shook Williams hand before leaving the table. All the other players breathed a sigh of relief as they are all now guaranteed to take home a minimum of $4,480.
