Joshua Wasserman (Deerfield Beach, FL) found himself in what seemed to be great position to double, but ended up experiencing the wrong side of variance.

After action folded around to Fred Dabus in the small blind, he would complete, with Joshua Wasserman than raising to 160,000 (with 200,000 behind).  Dabus then three-bet shoved, having Joshua covered, with Wasserman making the call:

Dabus: A♣ 10♣

Wasserman: A♥ Q♦

Runout: 10♦ 2♠ 4♦ 2♣ J♠

Fred spiked a ten to take a commanding lead, which would end up holding through the runout.  Wasserman collected $1,685 for his ninth place finish, which helps him cross the $85,000 mark in lifetime earnings.
