Hall Takes a Chance

Galen Hall started things off by accidentally folding, thinking he was under the gun when he was actually in the big blind. The floor did not rule his hand dead however, and Hall was given his cards back.

"You should probably just fold," Bryn Kenney warned him.

Chance Kornuth min-raised to 4,000, and the action folded to Hall who grinned before making the call. The flop came down {4-Spades}{9-Clubs}{q-Clubs}, and Hall check-called a 5,500-chip bet from Kornuth. The turn was the {a-Spades}, Hall checked again, and Kornuth continued for 12,000. Hall called.

The river was the {q-Spades}, and Hall checked a third time. Kornuth fired 18,500.

"We both know exactly what I have," Hall said.

The table laughed.

"I know you had a flush draw," Kornuth responded.

"I was going to call you before you said that," Hall sighed.

Hall still called, and Kornuth announced that he had an ace, turning over {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. Hall angrily mucked, and Kornuth raked in the pot.
