Hallaert Doubles Through Clinkscales

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Kenny Hallaert
Kenny Hallaert

Rex Clinkscales limped in from the small blind and Kenny Hallaert checked from the big. They went heads-up to the {k-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop and Clinkscales checked.

Hallaert bet 4,000 and Clinkscales called. The turn was the {k-Clubs} and Clinkscales checked to Hallaert who bet 15,000. Clinkscales check-raised all in and Hallaert nearly beat him into the pot for his last 68,000 turning over {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}.

Clinkscales was drawing dead holding {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and the meaningless {8-Clubs} completed the board to earn Hallaert the double-up.
