James Chen Eliminated in 2nd Place ($1,000,253)
James Chen won two pots to earn himself two big blinds and climb to 3,900,000, then raised to 1,200,000 and picked up a call by Stephen Chidwick.
The flop came 
and Chidwick checked to Chen, who bet 800,000. Just a few moments later, Chidwick check-raised the pot and Chen sunk back into his chair before eventually calling all in.

Chen was in trouble and needed running diamonds, straight cards or an eight to avoid the elimination. The 
turn gave him a gutshot, however, the 
river was a blank and Chen's bid for a maiden bracelet came to an end. He receives a massive payday of $1,000,253 while Chidwick earns the biggest victory of his poker career so far.
