The flop was dry, and so was the turn. "That's not good," Kostelac said seemingly prepared to make his exit. That's when the dealer delivered salvation and put out the on the river. It was another devastating river cards for Kaemmerlen, and he was left with just 10,000 after the hand.
He managed to double through Kostelac on the very next hand after catching a river card of his own, but on the third hand back he fell to Bradley Yazici. It happened when Kaemmerlen moved all in from the button for 21,500 and Yazici called from the big blind.

The board ran out a clean and Kaemmerlen was bounced in third place.
"You had some bad luck today," Kostelac chimed. It's true, but Kaemmerlen looked at it realistically.
"It happens," he said before heading to the payout desk to collect $10,178 for his third-place finish.
