As quick as Abraham Araya pushed over the 2 million chip mark, he's back down under it.
Justin Gardenhire just doubled through him, open-raising with kings and then jamming after an Araya three-bet.
Araya had nines, the kings held and Gardenhire has a big stack now.

Abraham Araya started the day as chip leader, but the past level and a half have not been good to him.
Down to his last 650k and facing a Daniel Lowery 60k open, he shipped it in and Lowery made the call. Araya had jacks, Lowery held tens and the jacks held to give him a much needed double up and right what looked like a sinking ship.
