Killian Desnos has raised blind on the button four times in a row, each time to 10,000, and each time before he has even been dealt any cards.

Desnos opened to 10,000 on the button, yet to receive his cards. When the cards were dealt, Lehr moved all-in for around 300,000.
Desnos folded, but expect more fireworks from this duo.
