Late in the last level, with the board showing Diamond JDiamond 5Spade 2Spade J on the turn, Mimi Luu got it all in with Club QHeart J for trip jacks, but she was in trouble against the Heart 5Club 5 (full house, fives full of jacks) of Duff Charette.

Luu needed to catch a queen, a jack, or a deuce to stay alive.

The river card was — the Spade 5!

The board paired, but in the worst possible way for Luu, as Charette made quad fives to win the pot and eliminate Luu from the tournament.
