Hall on the Brink
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
Galen Hall is down to fumes for chips after his top pair faired badly against Ismael Bojang.
The two players were in the blinds and called after an early position raise to 1,600 and a call. The four players took to a 
flop where the aggressor continued for 4,500. There was a fold before Hall called and Bojang raised to 16,000. The original raiser folded but Hall min-raised and then snap called when Bojang shoved for 54,800.
Hall: 
for top pair.
Bojang: 
for trips.
The board ran out 
and Hall was left with just 3,200.
