Joshua Wasserman (Deerfield Beach, FL) was hampered by a short stack for a majority of the afternoon, but managed to reach the final table despite that face.

After the elimination of Al Gomez, Joshua Wasserman (Deerfield Beach, FL) became the shortest stack at the final table.  His shove (for less than ten bigs) was called by both Sheldon Gross and Tony Ruberto, with Ruberto releasing his hand after a Shedon river bet.  Wasserman's A♠ Q♥ was bested by Sheldon's 5♠ 5♦, after the runout (2♥ 4♦ 6♠ 7♣ 8♠) gave Gross a straight.  Joshua earns $2,895 for his ninth place finish, and records his first tournament cash of the year.
