John Small saw action folded to him in the small blind and put out 150,000 on top of the 10,000 he had committed from his small blind. Nick Pupillo was in the big blind and looked down at his cards before slamming his stack of remaining T5,000 chips onto the felt.

John Small: {q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}
Nick Pupillo: {5-Spades}{6-Clubs}

Unfortunately for Pupillo, he had called off his last three or so big blinds only to be in dominated going to the flop. The board ran out {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}, resulting in Pupillo's hand remaining second best as he was sent to the rail in 13th place shortly after returning from the dinner break.
