Nick Petrangelo the 2016 PCA $100K SHR Bubble Boy
Level 17
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Nick Petrangelo is the official 2016 PCA $100,000 Super High Roller bubble boy after being felled by 2015 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Joe McKeehen.
It happened when McKeehen raised to 80,000 from under the gun and Petrangelo three-bet jammed for roughly 900,000 from the cutoff. The button and blinds all folded, and McKeehen snap-called.
McKeehen: 
Petrangelo: 
Petrangelo held a decent pair, but he ran it smack dab into McKeehen's cowboys. Petrangelo was looking for a ten, but he was left wanting as the board ran out a lackluster 
. Petrangelo left empty handed in ninth place while the remaining eight players are guaranteed $225,040.
