No Man is an Island, Except Ellis

Mike Ellis raised to 63,000 in the hijack only for Martin Jacobson in the small blind to reraise all of his green T25,000 chips - around 700,000 and easily enough to cover both Neil Channing in the big blind and Ellis.
Channing thought about it for a long time, and asked Ellis how many chips he'd started the hand with (answer - 400,000). Eventually he folded.
The action was back on Ellis, who tanked up for some time under the watchful gaze of some of his buddies and backers at the rail. Eventually he folded too, leaving himself on 340,000.
