Gregory Wood raised on the button and in the big blind, Melvin McCraney called.
The flop rolled out 8♥6♥2♣ and McCraney checked over to Wood who bet. McCraney raised in response and Wood wasted little time in calling.
On the following streets, McCraney bet both the turn 6♣ and river K♠ and Wood looked him up both times.
McCraney tabled A♦A♥Q♠3♣ for aces up with the nut low and Wood shook his head, pitching his cards into the muck. McCraney raked in the pot to be the first player in the tournament to eclipse the 5 million chip mark.
