Halat Sends One Packing

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

The flop read {8-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}, and Leon Halat, who finished in 9th place in the $500 No-Limit Hold'em Re-Entry just two days ago, was heads up with a lone opponent. Halat checked and his opponent fired a bet of 8,000. Halat flat called to see fourth street.

The {6-Clubs} dropped down on the turn and Halat tapped the table once more. His opponent moved all in for what looked to be 20,500 and Halat snapped him off.

Halat: {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Opponent: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

"Well then," his opponent lamented as he stood. "Give me a nine!"

The deck did not oblige, as the {4-Hearts} completed the board and Halat was able to score the knockout. Halat dragged in the pot and now has 95,000 in chips.
