From One Tournament to the Next
Level 4
: 200/400, 50 ante
Kenny Hallaert and Martin Kabrhel started today in the €111,111 One Drop with ten left. They are both now taking their seats in Day 1b of the Main Event.
Hallaert entered the day as the short stack and finished in tenth place for €295,131. This was the highest buy in tournament of Hallaert's career and he now steps into his wheelhouse — large field No-Limit Hold'em tournaments. He has two six-figure live scores since he finished sixth in the WSOP Main Event and has earned over $500,000 of his $3,310,209 in live tournament earnings in a little more than a year since.
Kabrhel just finished eighth in the One Drop for €366,762 and won his first WSOP gold bracelet during this WSOP Europe. He won the € 1,100 No Limit Hold'em - Super Turbo Bounty for € 53,557. Kabrhel is notorious for table talk and tanking, so it will be interesting to see how his table reacts to him throughout the day.
