Hasson Sets the Trap
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Nikola Grba opened with a raise to 2,400 in the hijack. Gary Hasson just called in the cutoff and Dylan Destefano came along on the button. Chaklam Tsang three-bet to 12,800 in the small blind which got Grba to fold. Hasson shoved all in for 22,500 which got Destefano to fold but Tsang called for the little bit extra.
Gary Hasson: A♥A♣
Chaklam Tsang: K♣J♣
The flop of 8♥5♦3♣ was safe for Hasson who was looking to double his stack. The A♦ on the turn locked up the pot as the Q♣ on the river was just a formality.
