Nicholas Grippo Eliminated in 16th Place ($27,029)

Nicholas Grippo
Nicholas Grippo
A short stacked Nicholas Grippo pushed all in with {6-Spades}{9-Clubs} and got called by Billy Kopp holding {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}.

Grippo's live cards died a quick death on a flop of {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs} when both players caught a flush draw, which completed with the {3-Clubs} on the turn. The {6-Hearts} on the river ended Grippo's tournament and sent him home in 16th spot.
