Darren Elias, raised to 40,000 from middle position. David Coleman raised to 110,000 chips from the cutoff.

A few hands later, Elias was in the big blind and found himself facing a 680,000-chip raise from Jesse Lonis on the button.

Elias made the call, with less.

Darren Elias: AKAll in
Jesse Lonis: 88
