Hall Toasts an Opponent
A player raised in the hijack to 1,200 and received calls from Robert Weir on the button, Galen Hall in the small blind, and the player in the big blind. The flop came and action checked to Weir, who bet 3,500. Hall called and the big blind folded. The hijack then shoved for a total of 20,600. Weir thought for about a minute and then folded, putting action on Hall. Hall did the math and decided to call.
Galen Hall:
Opponent:
Hall had a pair and a gutshot straight draw to his opponent's nines. The turn came to complete his straight, giving his opponent nothing more than the three sixes left in the deck to chop. Unfortunately for him, the river came and he was eliminated from the tournament as Hall reclaimed the chips he recently lost in a pot to Weir.
