Shaban Doubles Off Hallaert in Style
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Arlie Shaban moved all in for 32,500 in the hijack and Kenny Hallaert called in the cutoff to put his fellow Team PokerStars Pro at risk.
Arlie Shaban: A♥Q♣ 
Kenny Hallaert: 9♣9♥
Shaban was racing for his tournament life but quickly pulled ahead on the A♣A♠K♠ flop with trips. "Would be very painful now," he said going to the turn, which was the A♦ to give him quads.
"Give him a nine," Shaban added as the 3♦ completed the board on the river, securing his double up.
