Desai and Kade Chop Up Katz

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

On a multi-way flop of J?Q?10?, Jose Lara and Samuel Cade checked to Siddharth Desai who bet 3,000 and was called by Mark Katz to his left.

Lara also made the call but then Cade check-raised all in for 15,000 and the action was back to Desai who made the call. Katz then moved all in for less and Lara decided to get out of the way as the cards were tabled.

Mark Katz: K?6?
Samuel Cade: K?Q?
Siddharth Desai: K?Q?

All three players had an open-ended straight draw, but Cade and Desai also had a pair of queens, king kicker, as backup.

The board ran out 4?2? for all players to brick their straight draw, but Cade and Desai chopped the pot while Katz was eliminated.
