Sam Haddad opened to 350K preflop and Marc Podell moved all in for 1,820,000. Haddad thought for about 12 minutes before announcing call. They turned over:
Haddad [9h][9c]
Podell [Ad][Qc]
Haddad was ahead until the flop came down [Qs][7h][4c]. Podell took the lead with his pair of queens. The turn was the [Qd] and Haddad needed a nine on the river. However, it came down the [Kc].
Haddad had Podell covered, but only by 35,000 chips and he was eliminated on the next hand by Mike Dentale.
