Robert Merulla opened to 70,000 on the button, and Justin Filtz three-bet to 190,000 from the small blind. Merulla called. The flop fell 
, Filtz led for 225,000, and Merulla quickly called.
The turn was the 
, and Filtz led again - this time for 475,000. Merulla tanked for nearly a minute, before taking one green T25,000 chip off of a 500,000-chip stack, and sliding it forward.
The river was the 
, and Filtz paused before announcing, "one million."
Merulla leaned back from the table in disbelief. He put his hands together and rubbed them together, then turned to say something to Filtz. We didn't catch it, but we heard Filtz's response:
"I'm not going to show."
Nearly two minutes passed before Merulla said, "call," prompting Filtz to stand up and turn over 
for a set of kings. Merulla mucked his hand, and the near four million-chip pot was pushed over to Filtz.
