Schultz Spikes, Takes Command!

We're not certain of the preflop action, but it looks like Bryan Schultz raised to 200,000 from the button and Daniel Lowery three-bet to 600,000. Whatever led up to it, though, Schultz ended up shoving all in for 2.86 million total, and Lowery made the call for all the chips! He'd like what he saw, too, as he had Schultz dominated.

Showdown
Schultz: {J-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}
Lowery: {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}

The two rails came to life and pressed in around the table as they tried to catch a sight line for this huge flop. It did not disappoint. The dealer spread out a whale of a {10-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}, and Schultz was drawing live to the straight flush! He didn't have to wait long to find an out:

Turn: {2-Diamonds}!

Schultz's rail erupted in celebration, changing their chant from, "Diamond! Diamond!" to "Hold! Hold!" Now it was Lowery drawing, and he needed to find a diamond on the river to lock up the title. Ultimately, he'd fall short.

The river brought the blank {A-Spades}, and Lowery's trip aces were no good. Almost all of his chips have been flushed away, and he's now left with just 800,000 with which to try and mount a comeback.
