in large scale poker tournaments (World Poker Tour, World Series of Poker) the final table is made up of six players. thus, the "bubble place", i.e. missing the final table, is seventh. usually the final table in these tournament events is televised, so besides missing the prize money jump, the player also misses being on televisions (and the endorsements that come with it.)
Joe Sebok, son of poker legend Barry Greenstein, has had two WPT 7th place finishes; his friend, poker pro Gavin Smith, gave him the nickname "Seventhbok" for this feat.
