Vanauken Hits a Milly

"alwaysliquid"
"alwaysliquid"

In Level 15 with blinds of 2,500/5,000 and an ante of 625, all of the chips went into the middle preflop between "redraider" in the cutoff and Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken, who was on the button. "redraider" was at risk.

"redraider": {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Eric "alwaysliquid" Vanauken: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

"redraider" found some hope on the flop {2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, but a couple of bricks followed on the turn {6-Spades} and river {8-Diamonds} and they were eliminated at the expense of Vanauken, who has increased his chip lead as a result and now finds himself as the first player to reach 1 million in the tournament.
