Lars Kamphues raised to 200,000 with the 
on the button and was called by Dorian Melchers in the big blind with the 
. The 
flop was checked by Melchers, which prompted a bet of 150,000 by Kamphues and a call.
Both headed to the 
turn on which Melchers checked once more. Kamphues fired a second larger barrel for 850,000, the size of the pot. Melchers called once more and the 
turn gave Kamphues the nuts.
Following a check by Melchers, the third barrel for 2,000,000 and the Frenchman gave it some consideration before letting go.
