Zeidman Eliminated

Cory Zeidman exited the event late in Level 2 after flopping top set but being rivered by a flush. All in for his last 800 with pocket nines against {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}, Zeidman and his opponent both caught the {2-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Spades} flop.

"Just pair the board! Just pair the board!" shouted Zeidman. The {3-Diamonds} turn was no pairing card but still safe for Zeidman, but the {5-Spades} river was not, completing the opponent's flush.
