The flop was dealt QDiamond Suit3Club Suit2Diamond Suit and Dolan bet 385,000. Koroknai made the call and the 2Heart Suit fell on the turn.

Dolan bet 550,000 and Koroknai made the call again after some more deliberation. The pot was worth 2.6 million when the ASpade Suit was peeled off the deck on the river and Dolan bet 880,000. Koroknai went into the tank again and this time he mucked.
