Jan Von Halle Busts Michael Gracz

If you're wondering how Jan Von Halle rose to the top of the leaderboard, the following hand will help explain how. After Michael Gracz called Von Halle's 4,000 preflop raise, they saw a flop of {8-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}. Gracz led out for 10,000 and Von Halle bet the pot to set Gracz all-in. Gracz called and showed down J-9 for overcards and a gutshot, but Von Halle had Jacks for the overpair and Gracz didn't hit his straight draw. That hand put Von Halle up to 133,000 and ended Gracz's day.
