Two hands after running into Justin Young’s flush, Garrett Greer got his last 10,300,000 in holding As8d against the KhQc of Young.

The flop paired both players, falling AhKs4c, but Greer had the lead with a pair of aces. The turn was the Jd. A river Qh got a gasp out of the rail as Young improved to an unlikely two pair to bust Greer second. Young earned the title and $654,161.
