Dan Shak - 2nd Place
Dan Shak - 2nd Place

Dan Shak limped on the button and Vanessa Selbst checked her big blind.

The flop came down {K-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Selbst checked, leading Shak to bet 200,000. A raise to 625,000 was Selbst's next play. Shak responded with a shove for about 2.8 million and Selbst snap called with {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for top two pair. Shak tabled {J-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and was way behind with just middle pair, needing running jacks to survive.

The turn fell the {5-Hearts}, sealing the deal for Selbst. The {2-Hearts} river was merely a formaility, bringing an end to the tournament.

Dan Shak earned $254,000 for his runner-up showing.
