Halil Lightens the Field
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Hassan Halil raised to 2,200 from the hijack and was called by Danielle Noja in the big blind for a heads-up pot.
Noja checked to Halil, who continued for 2,200 on the 7♦8♥J♣ flop. Noja then announced he was all-in for approximately 8,000 and Halil snap-called to put Noja at risk.
Danielle Noja: 10♦8♦
Hassan Halil: A♣J♦
"I need a nine," Noja said upon seeing Halil's hand.
Noja had a few more outs than that, however, the Q♣ turn and 2♠ river kept Halil best with his pair of jacks and Noja was eliminated.
