Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Nathan Hall
Nathan Hall

Nathan Hall and Jeffery Cormier just played what may prove to be the deciding hand of the tournament and there was no showdown.

Hall completed from the small blind and Cormier made it 235,000 from the big blind. Hall called.

The two big stacks were heads up while Jason Mandanici-Turcot sat with a little over 1-million chips. The flop came {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Hall checked. Cormier bet 325,000 and Hall called.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and Hall led this time, making it 485,000. Cormier raised to 1,375,000. Hall then slid out a raise, but it wasn't enough chips so the official raise made it 2,265,000. Cormier and Hall sat for a while and Cormier thought he was waiting for Hall. Eventually Cormier called.

The river was the {q-Hearts} and Hall went all in for 1,525,000. Cormier put both hands on his head and thought for about 30 seconds.

"Fold," Cormier said.

Hall took a look at his hand again and then pushed them to the muck. He then pulled in the 7-million chip pot.
