Lisandro Gallo Eliminated in 3rd Place ($93,630)

Lisandro Gallo - 3rd Place
Lisandro Gallo - 3rd Place
Immediately following his two double-ups, Lisandro Gallo moves all in on the button for his last 46,000. Alex Brenes reraises, and Jose Miguel Espinar folds.

Brenes flips over {A-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} and he has the fate of Gallo in grave danger. The all in player turns over {Q-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}. The flop comes {K-Spades} {3-Clubs} {2-Spades}, leaving Gallo drawing to runner-runner. A second {K-?} on the turn seals the deal, and Gallo has been sent to the rail in third place. He will pocket close to $100,000 for his efforts, which should do wonders to ease the pain of being eliminated so close to the end.
