Halme Take From Rhee

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Yo Seb Rhee did not get to enjoy his seven-figure stack for very long with Finland’s Antti Halme earning himself a double at Rhee’s expense.

Pre-flop it was Rhee who opened the action from mid-position with a raise and Halme re-raised to 60,000 from the button, with Rhee making a quick call.

Both players checked the {3-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{8-Diamonds}flop and the {q-Hearts} came in on the turn, which saw Rhee lead out for 100,000. Halme quickly moved in for 185,000 and Rhee threw in the extras.

Yo Seb Rhee: {q-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Antti Halme: {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

Halme was in front and stayed that way with the {2-Hearts} river completing the hand. Halme doubled to 520,000 while Rhee dropped to 870,000.
