Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 3rd Place - Pandya ($43,040)

Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 2
Chip Average: 8,000,000

Ketan Pandya (Piscataway, NJ)

Joshua Beckley's final table run good will not stop, and he opens from the button and then calls Ketan Pandya's three-bet shove for 1,300,000:

Pandya: K♥ 9♥
Beckley: A♥ 10♠

Flop: 6♣ Q♦ 10♥
Turn: J♦
River: K♦

Beckley would hold the lead while Ketan held on to his wife, not looking at the runout at all.  After Pandya turned the straight, Joshua just asked for a king...and his wish would be granted.   "That's so sick," said Linster, as Pandya turned around to see his fate.   The two players are now heads up for the trophy, with updated counts to come.
