Top Set Goes Down in Flames For Halfa Against Achour
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Maher Achour raised to 60,000 in early position, Shalev Halfa three-bet to 165,000 in middle position, and Achour called.
The flop came 10♥8♣7♥ and Halfa continued for 90,000. Achour then raised to 280,000 and Halfa called.
Achour bet enough to put Halfa all in on the 6♣ turn and Halfa called for his last 300,000, turning over 10♣10♠ for top set. Achour, though, had K♣9♣ for a straight as the K♠ completed the board on the river to send Halfa to the rail.
