Event 4: Halperin Busts a Shorty

A player under the gun raised to 20,000, and action folded to Ron Halperin's big blind. He moved all in, and the under-the-gun player called.

Under the gun: {a-}{3-}{4-}{5-}
Halperin: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

Halperin flopped top pair when the {q-Spades}{3-Hearts}{8-Clubs} hit the board, and a {9-Spades} turn changed nothing. The river was a {10-Clubs}, and Halperin collected all of his opponent's chips with a straight. He's now at 116,000.
