Garza Doubles Through Halatenko
Level 33
: 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Stanislav Halatenko opened preflop action by raising to 1,000,000 from the cutoff. Action folded to Lou Garza in the big blind, who reraised to 3,000,000. Halatenko reraised to put Garza all in, and Garza made the call.
Lou Garza: A♣K♠Q♥Q♣
Stanislav Halatenko: A♠J♠J♣4♥
Garza held the lead, and he maintained that lead on the 6♥A♥6♠ flop. The 6♦ turn meant that Halatenko needed to find a jack to eliminate Garza, but the 6♣ river doubled Garza up with his sixes full of queens.
