The action folded around to Johannes Becker in the small blind who pushed all in for his last 750,000 chips. Chance Kornuth peeked down at his cards in the big blind and instantly called to put Becker at risk.

Chance Kornuth: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Johannes Becker: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}

Becker was way behind Kornuth's premium hand and the flop of {k-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Clubs} only made it worse. The {2-Spades} on the turn meant Becker was drawing dead to the {2-Hearts} on the river.
