The action folded around to Renji Mao in the small blind, who shoved for 2,055,000. Frederic Normand was in the big blind and after thinking for some time, he called.

Renji Mao: 10♠9♣ All in
Frederic Normand: A♠5♦

Normand had the lead with his ace-high and stayed in front after the deal spread J♦3♠3♣. A 5♣ on the turn paired Normand, but didn't change the fact that Mao needed a ten or a nine to stay alive.
