Level 18 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Stephen Chidwick opened to 40,000 from under the gun and Sean Winter shoved all in from the small blind. Daniel Negreanu folded his big blind and Chidwick instantly called for his last 497,000. Winter tabled {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds} but Chidwick woke up with another monster holding {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}.

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and just like that, Chidwick moved over the one million chip mark.

Meanwhile on the other table, Keith Tilston doubled through Isaac Haxton into the chip lead after flopping top two pair.
