: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Lawrence Brandt raised to 250,000 under the-gun and was called by Richard Crooks in the big blind.
The flop came out 
and Crooks check-called a bet of 300,000 from Brandt.

checked through to the 
river that saw Crooks lead out for 600,000. After some time Brandt called and Crooks said "nice hand," as Brandt turned over
