Samuel Gerber Eliminated in 2nd Place ($273,385)
In what would be the final hand of the tournament, Max Steinberg limped from the button and Samuel Gerber checked his option from the big.
The flop came 
and Gerber checked to Steinberg, who bet 100,000. Gerber immediately moved all-in for his last 1.7 million and Steinberg deliberated a while, but eventually made the call.
Steinberg: 
Gerber: 
Gerber looked clearly dejected to see he was drawing to just two outs, as a four and a four only would allow Gerber to survive.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the 
turn and 
river bricked out for Gerber and he was eliminated in 2nd place.
