Event 20: 12th Place - Pugliese

$1,000 + 90 + 500 Purple Chip Bounty No Limit Hold'em  

Carmelo Pugliese (Kenilworth, NJ)

$3,127

On a flop of T 9 8, Joe Gibbons checked, Carmelo Pugliese shoved, and Joe snap-called.

Carmelo had KQ for two overs with a gutshot.  Joe had QJ and had flopped the nuts.

The last two changed nothing and Joe took the pot and bounty.

Carmelo finished 12th for $3,127.
