Battle of the Short Stacks

Calum Grant

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Zachary Hall opened to 400,000 from the cutoff with Yaroslav Ohulchanskyi calling from the button.

Hall checked on J♥8♥6♣ flop before calling his opponent's bet of 200,000.

Hall, who had 2,600,000 behind, checked the 2♣ turn. Ohulchanskyi fired for 1,600,000, leaving just 150,000 behind.

Hall thought about it for a moment but opted to concede the pot, making the start of day chip leader, the table short stack.
