Nick Pupillo

The action folded to Chris Leong on the button and he raised to 27,000. Nick Pupillo called from the big blind and they went heads up to the Q♣️8♣️8♠️ flop. Pupillo checked and Leong threw out a bet of 20,000. Pupillo check raised all in for 185,000 and Leong nearly beat him into the pot with the call. 

Pupillo turned over K♣️6♣️ for a king high flush draw and Leong showed trip eights holding K♠️8♥️. The turn was the 10♣️ and Pupillo turned his flush to take the lead. The 10♥️ completed the board and Leong improved to a full house to score the knockout.

 Pupillo is our 7th place Event 9 finisher and will take home $2,701 for his efforts.
