Day 2: Meymandi Shoves on Shaw; Bluff Exposed

David Shaw opened preflop and was three-bet to 300,000 by Jack Meymandi in the big blind, which Shaw called to see the flop of 7♣9♣J♥. 

Meymandi continued for 300,000, Shaw made the call, and the two continued to the turn K♥. 

Meymandi then moved all in for over 2,000,000, covering Shaw, who went into the tank. After over a minute, he finally decided to lay it down, admitting he had K♣Q♣. 

Meymandi then showed him the Q♠ and also told the dealer his other card had a mark on it. When the floor came over to change the card, the Q♥ was exposed, meaning Shaw folded the best hand. 

Meymandi - 4,000,000
Shaw - 1,800,000
