Barstool Nate No More

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Eric Nathan
Eric Nathan

The elimination of Eric Nathan, AKA Barstool Nate, went unreported when it happened earlier in the day, but PokerNews was able to learn some details after the fact.

The man himself explained that the small blind ripped it preflop with {3-}{3-} and he called off for 350,000 in the big with the {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}.

Barstool Nate flopped two hearts to go with his overs, which made him a slight favorite, but he bricked both the turn and river to bust the tournament early on Day 2.
