Joe Catalano Eliminated in 3rd Place ($1,790)

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante
Joe Catalano
Joe Catalano

Joe King opened to 200,000 from the small blind and called a three-bet shove from Joe Catalano for not much more. Catalano was racing with the {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} to King's {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}.

A {k-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} board fanned out giving King a straight on the turn and Catalano was sent to the payout desk in third place.
