Brandon Paster, Bubble Boy

Lee Watkinson raised the pot on the button and Brandon Paster, who was all in against Watkinson the previous hand when the two chopped, raised all in from the big blind for 22,000 total. Watkinson made the call and after having to wait until the other tables were finished their hands, the players flipped their cards.

Watkinson: {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Paster: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

Paster was ahead until the {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades} flop came down to give Watkinson the lead with bottom set. Paster could still stay alive with an ace, jack or running cards. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} to give Paster a flush draw but the river was the {K-Clubs} to fill Watkinson up and eliminate Paster in 37th place, one short of the money as this tournament’s bubble boy. The remaining players will now all receive at least $10,091 for their efforts.
