Halpern Catapults Through Maggard

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 0 ante
David Halpern
David Halpern

The flop read {j-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and there was around 60,000 in the pot. Matthew Maggard bet 35,000 and was raised by his neighbor Floyd Bangerter to 150,000.

David Halpern announced that he was all in for about 530,000 and Maggard snap-called. Bangerter thought for several moment and then let his hand go, the remaining two tabled their cards.

Maggard turned over {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for the top set and Halpern stood up and prepared to walk away as he tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for a pair of queens with the flush draw.

The dealer burned and turned a {9-Diamonds}, moving Halpern back into his seat. A {7-Hearts} peeled off as the river card and failed to improve Maggard's hand as Halpern scooped in the pot with his turned flush.
