On the A♦Q♦7♣ flop, Barkusky checked to Cohen who jammed for 4,200,000 effective. Barkusky went into the tank for around three minutes before he decided to call it off
Nicolas Barkusky: K♦K♣ 
Lucien Cohen: 6♦2♦
Barkusky was ahead with his kings but Cohen had a flush draw. The 6♥ on the turn gave Cohen additional outs but the 8♥ river bricked off and Barkusky held to double,
