Nick Perkins Eliminated in 5th Place ($22,639)

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Nick Perkins - 5th Place
Nick Perkins - 5th Place

Nick Perkins began today as the chip leader with 65 players left. He managed to use that stack to navigate his way to the final table, but his journey has ultimately come to an end in fourth place.

In his final hand, Jason Zarlenga raised to 88,000 and Perkins opted to move all in from the big blind for roughly 500,000. Zarlenga snap-called.

Zarlenga: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Perkins: {a-Hearts}{4-Spades}

Perkins had some kicker issues, and they didn't get resolved on the {q-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}. Perkins actually picked up a wheel draw, but Zarlenga picked up a flush draw. The {3-Hearts} turn put out some chop options, but the {J-Hearts} river failed to change anything.
