Daniels Loses a Five Million Pot

We must admit we missed the action, but one player yelling at the top of his lungs got our attention. When we rushed over, the dealer was shoving a monster pot to the player in the two-seat with the cards already face down.
We later learned that it had been Jacob Daniels who was on the losing end of the five-million pot, getting it in on the turn with pocket queens against king-jack on a king-jack-high board. Daniels’ wasn’t convincing enough to get his opponent to fold top-two, and he was left considerably shorter than just moments ago when he was amongst the bigger stacks in the room.
