Default Anyone have Exact Chip Counts of the Raymer vs. Kanter hand?

Anyone have a very close estimate of the action including player's stacks sizes before the hand, blinds, preflop raise, pot size on the flop, flop bet by Raymer, turn pot size and bet by Raymer, re-raise by Kanter and how much it was for Kanter to call Greg's all in compared to the pot.

The cardplayer report is limited but I believe the ESPN episode picked most of this up. Curious on the pot odds of the situation:

"Hand 20 - Ayhan Alsancak has the button in seat 5, Raymer raises, and Kanter calls. The flop comes 6c-5d-3h, and there's a bet and a call. The turn card is the 7h, Kanter bets $600,000, and the two players are quickly all in. Raymer shows pocket kings (Kd-Kh), and Kanter has Qh-Jh. Kanter has a flush draw, and needs to catch a heart to win the pot. The river card is the 2h, and Kanter makes his flush to double up through Greg Raymer.

Kanter's supporters are ecstatic, and cheering loudly, but the rest of the room is nearly silent as crowd-favorite Greg Raymer loses a huge pot. You can distinctly hear the cheers, but the silence in the rest of the room is almost overpowering. Aaron Kanter now has somewhere between $3.5 and $4 million, while Greg Raymer is crippled down to about $400,000. "
