Freddy Deeb opened the action for 500 preflop and was called by two players, including Kenny Hallaert, before the player in the big blind reraised to 2,500. All three other players called, creating a wildly out of control pot of 10,000 chips on a flop of {9-Spades}

. The big blind led out for 7,000, folding Deeb. Hallaert raised to 22,000, then snap-called all in when the big blind moved all in for 34,075 total.

Hallaert: {Q-Clubs}

Big Blind: {8-Spades}

The turn was the {K-Spades}

and the river was the {8-Diamonds}

. Nines and eights for the big blind were no good against Hallaert's queens and nines. Dragging that massive pot increased Hallaert's count to close to 80,000 chips.
