Gaspare Sposato Eliminated in 20th Place ($8,020)

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Gaspare Sposato
Gaspare Sposato

Dan Borlan raised from the hijack and Gaspare Sposato called from the big blind.

On a flop of 26J, Sposato checked from the big blind and Borlan fired out a bet of 150,000. Sposato then raised to 500,000, and Borlan called.

When the K landed on the turn, Sposato shoved for around 1,200,000, and Borlan snap-called.

Gaspare Sposato: KQ All in
Dan Borlan: 22

Sposato had top pair with a flush draw, but Borlan's bottom set was a huge favorite to scoop the pot. A 7 on the river was the wrong shade of black for Sposato, and he was out in 20th.
