Alexandros Kolonias Eliminated in 2nd Place ($1,000,991)

Alexandros Kolonias:
Ben Ward:
It was a flip that would leave Ward with 36.5 million in chips if he were to lose, still plenty of big blinds. However, the flop vaulted the Brit into the lead and he remained there throughout the turn and river.
Kolonias' bid for another major title ended with a runner-up finish, sweetened by the $1,000,991 consolation prize. Ward collects the far biggest single prize of the entire festival worth $1,242,332.
A recap of today's action is to follow.
