Cody Munger opened the action with a raise to 33,000 from middle position before action fell on Jeff Sarwer in the hijack seat. Sarwer reraised to 76,000. Play folded around to Emil Patel in the small blind and he reraised the pot to 285,000. Action folded back to Sarwer and he thought for a bit, looking pained as he tanked. Eventually, Sarwer said, "All right, I re-pot," and Patel called to put himself all in for 417,000 total. Here's what they revealed.

Patel: {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{8-Spades}
Sarwer: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

The flop came down bleak for Sarwer with the {J-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} rolling out. The turn was the {5-Hearts} and left Sarwer with just two outs to a set of tens in order to win the hand and eliminate Patel. The river card was the {K-Hearts} and Patel finished with a flush to win the pot and double up.
