Raoul Cheong had managed to chip up to over 10M after starting Day 3 at ~2M but just took the first real hit to his stack.
Cheong opened the pot from the cutoff to 425k. Ruslan Arstanaliyev was on the button and moved all-in for 3.05M total. The blinds folded out and Cheong made the call after verifying the count.

Board: J♦4♣6♣10♥Q♦
Astanaliyev was in a dire situation after the turn gave Cheong a set but managed to make Broadway on the end and stay alive. Full chip counts will be coming up shortly after the break.
