== Death == On April 15, 1931, Joe Masseria was assassinated at one of his favorite restaurants, Nuova Villa Tammaro in Coney Island. Gangland legend has it that Masseria dined with [[Lucky Luciano]] before his death. While they played cards, Luciano excused himself to the bathroom, when [[Bugsy Siegel]], [[Vito Genovese]], [[Albert Anastasia]] and [[Joe Adonis]] rushed in and shot Masseria to death, his four bodyguards having mysteriously disappeared. The New York Daily News reported that the boss died "with the ace of spades, the death card, clutched in a bejeweled paw."
