Pupillo Doubles Through Hoover
Level 24
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
John Hoover came in for 55,000 in middle position, and Nicholas Pupillo shoved for 173,000 on the button. Hoover called.
Hoover: 
Pupillo: 
The race was on, and Hoover flopped more outs as 
hit the felt. The 
closed off backdoor flush possibilities on the turn.
"Pair the board," someone from Pupillo's rail called. Pupillo was in agreement with this sentiment.
"Pair the board, please," he echoed.
The dealer did pair the board: 
was the river card, and Pupillo doubled up.
