. Kramer checked, Darie bet 800,000, and Kramer quickly let it go.
Hand #5: Darie made it 350,000 to go from the hijack, and Kramer, in the small blind, asked for his stack before three-betting to 1,560,000. Darie called.
The flop came 
. Kramer continued for 1,450,000, and Darie called. Both players checked the 
on the turn, and Kramer bet 3,800,000 on the river. Darie went into the tank for more than four minutes without any of the players calling the clock on him. Eventually, the Romanian folded, and Kramer claimed the pot without showdown.
