With the board showing Qd6d4s7d on the turn and 6,400,000 already in the pot, David Lee checked, Stephen Gerber bet 3,000,000, and Lee check-raised to 9,500,000.

Gerber moved all in for 27,100,000, and Lee asked for an exact count and tanked for a while before he folded. Gerber took the pot — and the chip lead.
