Niederreiter Wins a Big Flip to End the Night

Level 20
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On the last hand of the night, Fabian Niederreiter raised to 60,000 in middle position and Archibald Seaton three-bet to 150,000 in the hijack. Niederreiter then announced a reraise to 1,000,000 and Seaton called for around 800,000.
Archibald Seaton: A?Q?
Fabian Niederreiter: 8?8?
Seaton needed to survive the flip to secure his spot in Day 3, but he couldn't connect with the 7?6?3?K?J? board and Niederreiter took the massive pot to join the chip leaders at the end of the day.
