Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

A preflop raising war had Gyeong Byeong Lee, in the cutoff, and Robert Schulz, from the small blind, each committing about 450,000 to the pot after a raise and a three-bet.

The flop came down {Q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{10-Spades}, and both players checked to see the {Q-Clubs} on the turn. Schulz decided to lead out, putting out a bet of 440,000. Lee thought for a long time, so long, in fact, that another player at the table called the clock on him. With 10 seconds left on his clock, Lee decided to raise, making it one million total.

Schulz dropped into the tank. He thought for several minutes, then moved all in for a total of 2,525,000. Lee asked for a count, thought for about a minute, then folded his hand, allowing Schulz to take in the monster pot.
