Mike Vanier moved all in from the small blind, and Giuseppe Calio used two of his Time Chips to tank for more than a minute before he called all in for 560,000 with Ac4d.

Vanier turned over 3h2h, and Calio needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The board came As10h8s7h6c — Calio paired his ace on the flop, Vanier turned a heart flush draw, and the river card was a blank. Calio won the pot with his pair of aces to double up in chips.

Giuseppe Calio  –  1,180,000  (20 bb)
Mike Vanier  –  2,680,000  (45 bb)

With three players remaining from a field of 227, the average chip stack is around 1,515,000 (25 big blinds), and the remaining players are guaranteed at least $46,500 each.
