Hallaert Wins Two From the Blinds
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Tomas Szwarcberg limped in from the small blind before Kenny Hallaert raised to 1,500,000 with 3♦2♣. Szwarcberg called and the flop came 8♠7♦4♣.
Hallaert then bet 1,200,000 and Scwarzberg folded K♥10♦.
Hallaert limped in the next hand with Q♦7♠, Joshua Beckenstein raised to 1,350,000, and Hallaert called.
Beckenstein bet 700,000 on the Q♣J♠J♦ flop and Hallaert called with two pair. The turn was the 2♠ and Beckenstein bet another 2,900,000.
Hallaert again called as the J♣ river improved him to a full house. Both players checked and Beckenstein mucked after Hallaert turned over his cards, taking down the last pot at this table as the field prepared for the three-table redraw.
