Benjamin Guzman opened to 850,000 under the gun and action folded around to Alex Kotliarsky, who defended his big blind. The flop came {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Kotliarsky checked. Guzman ripped in his remaining chips and Kotliarsky immediately called.

Benjamin Guzman: {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Alex Kotliarsky: {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}

Greg Gius came over from his final table of the nightly 7 p.m. event just in time to see his friend Kotliarsky make the call and put his hand on Kotliarsky's shoulder as if to congratulate him on a nice hand. There were still two more cards to fade though, but he had no sweat as the turn {5-Spades} and river {2-Spades} kept him with the best hand, eliminating Guzman from the tournament as a result. The two shook hands and went on with their business.
