Johan Jakobsson made a cracking start to Day Three as he took on the chip leader for his tournament life - and emerged the victor.
The monster pot puts 'Dusty_Rat' second in chips with 1.35m.
UK player Sam Trickett - who was sitting on around 1.5m chips after continuing his Day Two ascent - three-bet the Paradise pro's utg raise, only to find himself put to the test by the talented Swede.
Johan shipped the chips into the middle, and after some thought, Trickett made the call and was dismayed to see AA in his opponent's hand.
His A♥K♥ held brief hope of a split pot when the flop came 2-3-5, but a 9 on the turn and river blank meant Dusty's hand held up.
