Max Pescatori Eliminated in 26th ($5,905)

A rough one here.

On a flop of {Q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, Craig Natte and Max Pescatori were all in against Greg Cox, who had both covered.

Cox {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Natte {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Max Pescatori {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}

Pescatori had flopped top set. Natte had flopped bottom set. And Cox just had his aces.

The turn brought the {4-Clubs}, giving Natte a flush draw. "No!" said Pescatori. "Don't ruin my World Series!"

The river was indeed ruinous for Pescatori -- the {3-Clubs}. Pescatori is out, and Natte has zoomed up to 164,000.
