Eric Wasserson Eliminated in 20th Place ($25,380)

Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Eric Wasserson opened the action with a raise to 85,000 from the hijack, and was called by the big blind Rui Neves.
The flop came Q?8?7? and Neves lead out for a bet to put Wasserson all in for his stack of roughly 120,000, which Wasserson quickly called.
Eric Wasserson: A?Q?J?7?
Rui Neves: A?Q?9?6?
Wasserson was ahead with his two pair aces and sevens, and the K? on the turn changed nothing. But the 9? on the river gave Neves a bigger two pair, aces and nines, to take the pot and send Wasserson to the rail.
