Nick Pupillo Eliminated in 20th Place ($14,572)

Nick Pupillo raised all-in from the first position and action folded to big stack Shawn Buchanan, sitting in the big blind. Buchanan asked for the count and when he got 141,000 as an answer, he counted calling chips and threw them forward.

Pupillo was slightly behind with {K-Spades}{2-Spades} against {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, and while he was drawing live, the {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop didn't look good for him. The {J-Spades} turn gave Pupillo hopes for a Broadway, but the {8-Clubs} river definitely eliminated him from the tournament.
