Trayner Holds On
Level 41
: Blinds 1,250,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Carson Richards raised from the button to 5,500,000 and Australia's Malcolm Trayner shoved from the big blind for almost 22,000,000. Richards took a while before he dropped in calling chips which put Trayner at risk.
Malcolm Trayner: A♠5♦ 
Carson Richards: K♥10♥
Trayner managed to fade everything as the 7♠9♣7♣9♠Q♦ runout kept his ace-high in the lead and forced Richards to slide over a stack of chips.
