From middle position, Yashar Darian raised to 65,000. Diana Allen and Jason Somerville both called in position and the blinds folded.

The flop was {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and Darian checked. Allen fired out 110,000, Somerville folded and Darian called. On the {2-Diamonds} turn, Darian led out for 225,000. Allen thought for a minute or two as she stacked out chips and slid forward 725,000. With no hesitation, Darian announced that he was all in. When prompted, the dealer pulled in Allen's raise from both players and Allen was starring at a Million chips still left in front of Darian. She had about 1.4 Million left.

"Do you have Ace-King of diamonds again? Again?" she asked. Darian just responded with a cold stare through his sunglasses. Eventually, she gave up the hand and Darian moves up to 2,890,000 after that hand.
