According to a player at the table, a massive pot erupted between Kenny Hallaert and Kevin O'Donnell.

Hallaert opened to 11,500 pre-flop and was called by Kevin O'Donnell in the small blind and Tommy Tran in the big blind.

The flop was {9-Clubs}{10-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and everyone checked to the turn which was the {k-Diamonds}. The blinds checked and Hallaert bet 16,500. O'Donnell called and Tran folded.

The river was the {6-Diamonds} and O'Donnell led out for 51,500. Hallaert moved all in and after about a five minute tank, O'Donnell called. Hallaert tabled {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for the nut flush and O'Donnell showed {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds} for the turned straight. It is unclear how much O'Donnell was left with after the hand and Hallaert's all in was for around 200,000.
