Rooster Flops the Golden Egg
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action began when Darren "Rooster" Healy shoved from the hijack for 95,000 and Shalev Halfa on the button called. Then Nick Maimone in the big blind re-shoved over the top for an additional 305,000.
After a few moments in the tank, Halfa made the call and the cards were exposed, with Halfa covering both players.
Darren "Rooster" Healy: ![]()
Nick Maimone: ![]()
![]()
Shalev Halfa: ![]()
![]()
"Ok that's good, all I need is a king and I'm golden," Healy said confidently.
Apparently confidence plays a huge part in the deck because the flop was ![]()
![]()
to put him the lead.
The board completed with the ![]()
and Healy scored a huge triple up while Halfa won the big sidepot and eliminated Maimone.
