"He just hit a two-outer on the river," realized Jonathan Zarin after processing the unlucky outcome of the hand that saw him eliminated.

Just as many of the previous heads-up pots started, the final one was limped. Tyler Groth was on the button and completed. Zarin's check was followed by the {6-Spades}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop, where Zarin led out for 100,000. Groth called.

The {10-Spades} turn brought Zarin's second barrel �� worth 300,000 this time. Groth called again.

The key card of the tournament was the {A-Diamonds} river, though. Zarin announced he was all in, and Groth called immediately, saying, "Aces full."

Zarin couldn't believe that his opponent really hit the ace on the river. Groth's {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} was trailing on the flop and turn, as Zarin held {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a flopped set and a turned full house.

Jonathan Zarin fell just shy of winning the bracelet, outlasting all but one player in the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event. Zarin earned $110,655 for his runner-up finish, while the elusive gold belongs to Jonathan Groth.
