Hall Can't Stand the Heath
There's a lot of action on table 4. Ben Heath, Caitlin Hall and Vladimir Troyanovskiy are the most notables names at that table. Four-way, five-way or even six-way to the flop isn't an exception.
In one of the last hands before the break, Christophe Larquemin raised to 450 from first position, Karzan Hamarash, to his left, made the call. Ben Heath raised it up to 1,650 and Caitlin Hall threw in a four-bet to 3,700.
Larquemin called, Hamarash got out of the way and Heath paid to see the 
flop.
Larquemin front-bet 3,250, which both, Heath and Hall, called. The turncard was the 
and now it was checked to Hall. She threw in a bet of 5,800, leaving her with only 7,600 behind.
Larquemin folded and it was up to Heath. He check-raised to 15,000 and Hall went in the tank.
She thought about it for several minutes but eventually folded her hand.
In the next hand, she bet 600 on the 
flop and Michael Ho was her only opponent. He called and both checked the 
turn. The 
landed on the river and Hall checked to Ho.
He put out a 1,600-bet and Hall tanked again. "I wish I hadn't acted so tilted", she said. "That would have made my river decision a lot easier."
After a couple of minutes she threw in a 5,000-chip to call and Ho snap mucked his hand, boosting Hall's stack up to 12,000.
