Down to his final 260,000, Jacobo Fernandez would open shove after action folded to him, with Joel Deutsch asking for a count (out of the big blind).  Once getting the count, Joel would make the call, with Jacobo flipping for his tournament life:

Fernandez: A♣ K♣
Deutsch: 6♠ 6♣

Runout: Q♠ 4♦ 7♣ 10♠ J♣

Joel was able to fade the flop...and turn...but not the river, as Fernandez made broadway.

Joel Deutsch - 1,650,000 (41bb)
Jacobo Fernandez - 580,000 (14bb)
