Darren Elias raised to 100,000 small blind versus big and Prahlad Friedman called in the big blind. Elias patted and Friedman took one.
Elias bet 150,000 and Friedman went deep into the tank. After awhile, he splashed in calling chips. Whatever Elias announced, it was worse than 
that Friedman decided to hero call with.
