Ryan 'g0lfa' D'Angelo - 14th place

On the turn with a board of K 7 3 A, Russ Radom (Warwick, PA) got all-in against Daniel Hindin. Daniel can do no wrong now. He held pocket 7s for the set and was killing Russ' pocket 3s (lower set). Russ had one out in the deck and it did not appear on the river. Russ finished 13th for $12,260.
