Derek Whorley had watched his stack dwindle until he had 5,000 of his remaining 10,300 in for the big blind.  He got all-in against two players, who checked down the board of Tc6s2h2d9d.

Derek showed 88xx for two pair, but Alex Ivan had 9s9c8s5s for nines-full to take the pot.

Derek Whorley, who is only 19 years old and the youngest player at this table and probably in this entire event, busted out in 7th place on the bubble.
