Hallaert's Run Comes to an End
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
After an up-and-down start to Day 3 in which the PS ambassador lost most of his chips and then span it back up to a playable amount, Kenny Hallaert's run has come to an end.
Following an open-raise and call, Hallaert pushed all in for around 220,000 and Michel Molenaar made the call. Players flipped their cards, with Hallaert at risk.
Kenny Hallaert: 5♥5♦
Michel Molenaar: A♣Q♥
The board ran out K♣2♣J♠8♠Q♠ and Hallaert was one card away from holding before Molenaar found a pair of queens on the river. He won the pot and chipped up to over 2,000,000, while Hallaert was eliminated from the tournament.
