Eric "Barstool Nate" Nathan busted the World Series of Poker Paradise (WSOPP) Super Main Event in brutal fashion as the sports blogger first misclicked and then jammed into pocket aces.
The hand against high-stakes Spanish pro Sergio Aido took place on a streamed table during Day 1c of the $25,000 buy-in tournament with a $60 million guaranteed prize pool.
The tournament was Nathan's first public poker appearance since an infamous $20,000 loss to Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who had minimal poker experience.
With one more starting flight and Day 2 registration still to come, the Super Main Event is getting closer to reaching its record-setting $60 million guarantee.
There are 2,000 total entries so far in the first starting flight. That means only 400 more players are needed to reach the guarantee — putting the event $9,875,000 away from reaching the overlay.
