[user67765]

David Daneshgar raised it up to 250,000 from the button. Dan Heimiller made the call in the small blind, before Scott Sitron squeezed from the big blind, making it 700,000 to go. Daneshgar then announced a re-raise, adding an additional 1,000,000 in chips as a monster pot was brewing. Heimiller moved out of the way and Sitron deliberated for a few moments before giving up his hand.

Daneshgar collects a huge pot without even seeing a flop to move into the chip lead with 3,435,000 chips.
