Halvorson Sends One Packing

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

We arrived at the table to find the aftermath of a hand where Nicolas Halvorson sent a player to the rail. Halvorson's opponent opened with a raise of pot and it came around to Halvorson who potted it back. His opponent called and the flop brought {6-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. The rest of the money went in on the flop and the hands were tabled.

Halvorson: {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

Halvorson was ahead and needed to fade clubs on the next two streets. He did exactly that as the {5-Diamonds} turned and the {2-Hearts} rivered. Halvorson was able to drag the pot and now sits on about 140,000.
