Zachary Schwartz Eliminated in 2nd Place ($314,056)
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Zachary Schwartz limped in from the small blind and Daniel Zack made it 1,500,000 from the big blind. Schwartz called.
They went to a flop of 8♥8♣Q♦, where Zack fired 700,000 and Schwartz put in the call.
When the 7♣ landed on the turn, Zack checked and Schwartz shoved for 3,600,000. Zack rechecked his cards and then called.
Zachary Schwartz: A♣J♣5♣5♥ 
Daniel Zack: K♣Q♣J♦6♦
Both players had flush draws, but Zack didn't want to make it as Schwartz had better one. All eyes were locked on the board, and when the dealer put out the K♠ on the river, Schwartz had to settle for second.
