Event 10: 3rd Place - Naughton

 $400 + $50 No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry) 

Paddy Naughton (Ridgeway, NJ) 
$4,902

Blinds 10k/20k/3k ante

Paddy Naughton sends a double-up to Kevin Truong and is knocked out a few hands later by Antonio Walker.

Against Truong, on a board of A 5 9 9, Naughton bets 150k.  

"There's no way you have a 9," says Truong who makes the call.

When an 8 hits the river, Naughton moves all in and puts Truong at risk for his last 230k.

"I don't think you have a 9," says Truong who eventually makes the call.

Naughton turns over 5 7 for a pair of 5s against Truong's A 4 and a winning pair of Aces.

The hand knocks Naughton down to 300k which he ends up losing to Walker.

Naughton, a retired iron worker, earns $4,902 for his third place finish.

Walker and Truong begin heads up play even in chips.
