2,000,000-Chip Flip

Bradley Craig started this laugher of a hand with an early-position raise to 51,000. Around in late position, Jake Abdallah three-bet it up to 165,000. When it came back on Craig, he moved all in for 1,020,000, and Abdalla made the call for his own tournament life.

Showdown
Craig: {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades}
Abdalla: {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}

That's right, nearly 2,000,000 chips up for grabs pre-flop as both men tabled ace-queen. The board ran out blanks, and the two men took their own money back plus an extra couple thousand.
