Allan Wins Huge One on the Bubble

A big pot has just been sent the way of David Allan here during hand-for-hand play. The action started with Ivan Zalac opening to 11,500 from under the gun. Folded to around to Allan in the hijack, he three-bet to 25,000. Back on Zalac and he four-bet to 55,000. Allan didn't take too long to five-bet to 92,000. Zalac made the call and the dealer readied three cards for the felt.

Flop: {4-Hearts} {j-Hearts} {k-Hearts}

Zalac checked here and Allan bet 45,000. The tension from Zalac's side of the table could be felt as he took his time to make the call. When the {9-Spades} hit the turn, Zalac again checked and this time Allan bet 50,000 - the majorirty of Zalac's stack at this point. Zalac frustratingly let his hand go and Allan raked in the sizable pot. With that, Zalac joins the ranks of the short-stacked players.
