Rooster Flops the Golden Egg

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action began when Darren "Rooster" Healy shoved from the hijack for 95,000 and Shalev Halfa on the button called. Then Nick Maimone in the big blind re-shoved over the top for an additional 305,000.

After a few moments in the tank, Halfa made the call and the cards were exposed, with Halfa covering both players.

Darren "Rooster" Healy: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Nick Maimone: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Shalev Halfa: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

"Ok that's good, all I need is a king and I'm golden," Healy said confidently.

Apparently confidence plays a huge part in the deck because the flop was {k-Hearts}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts} to put him the lead.

The board completed with the {9-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Healy scored a huge triple up while Halfa won the big sidepot and eliminated Maimone.
