Hall on a Rush
Joseph Hall held the chip lead with about 1,140,000 before adding about 160,000 more to his stack.
After Noah Vaillancourt opened with a raise from middle position, Hall popped it to 35,000 from the cutoff. Thai Le went all in from the small blind for 114,000 and action folded back to Hall.
"Why do I do this to myself? he asked himself.
After a few moments he called and tabled 
. Le was well ahead with 
and stayed that way after the 
flop. However, Hall caught the 
turn and 
river to make running two pair to win the pot.
