Katz Can't Run the Short Stack Any Longer

Level 13 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu opened to 22,000 from under the gun with {a-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and Cary Katz shipped all in for his last 80,000 in the hijack holding {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}. The action folded back to Negreanu who made an easy call.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and Negreanu jumped out front with a pair of aces. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Katz was left drawing to a single out once again. The {4-Diamonds} rolled off on the river and that spelled the end of Katz's run here in the Main Event.
