Brutal River Card Sends Cary Katz to Rail in Ugly Fashion

Level 14 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

In a leftover hand from last level, which just aired on the PokerGO live stream, Cary Katz got his last 81,000 all in preflop and was at risk against Ben Lamb.

Lamb: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Katz: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop gave Katz a full house, and the {5-Hearts} turn meant all he needed to do was dodge an ace and the case four on the river to double. That proved easier said than done though as the {4-Spades} spiked to give Lamb quad fours with an ace kicker.
