Josh Kay raised from the cutoff to 550,000 with QsQh, Anton Wigg reraised from the big blind to 2,300,000 with AsKs, and Kay thought for a bit before he moved all in for 17.2 million.

Wigg quickly called all in for 10.9 million with his ace-king, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 9d5c2cKd10d, and Wigg paired his king on the turn to win the pot and double up in chips.
