Jack Duong won a few pots to leave Jennifer Shahade under 200,000.

Moments later, she raised to 15,000 on the button and he pushed all in. Shahade took a moment to think, then called it off with the {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. Duong had the {3-Clubs}{3-Spades} and held through the {9-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop.

The turn came the {q-Hearts} giving Shahade a few more outs.

"Oh my God, how can I miss, " she asked, just before the {6-Hearts} river came down.

Shahade indeed missed and took second for $9,312, giving the trophy, the title, and $15,520 in first-place money to Jack Duong. A recap and a winner photo will follow.
