Level 26
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Alexander Villa opened to 105,000 from the cutoff and Nathan Hall reraised from the small blind to 350,000. Jeffrey Cormier folded in the big blind.
Villa called and the flop came 
. Hall led for 325,000 and Villa called.
Both players checked the 
on the turn and the 
on the river. Hall showed 
against the 
of Villa. Villa won the hand with a pair of tens.
Jeffrey Cormier added that he had pocket fives, but couldn't play the hand after the Hall preflop three bet.
