Attilio Bitondo - 3rd Place

Moments after scoring a fortunate double through Mike Sandler by filling a gutshot straight draw, Attilio Bitondo just took two to the head.

The 85-year old shoved all in before the flop holding {9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}, and perhaps steaming a bit from the aforementioned loss, Sandler quickly announced the call while tabling {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.

The flop came down {10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Sandler shook his head in disgust, sensing that he may not be able to best his elder on this day, and the turn fell {4-Diamonds} to confirm his suspicion.

River: {7-Hearts}

Just like that, Sandler had caught up to end Bitondo's amazing run in this tournament, sending him back to New York with an incredibly impressive 3rd place finish.
