Hall Gets There the Hard Way Against Brooks

Level 6 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Galen Hall opened from the hijack and John Brooks defended his big blind.

On the 1075 flop, Brooks checked to Hall who continued for 7,000 before Brooks check-raised to 20,000, and Hall called.

Brooks then led the 8 turn for 35,000 and Hall stuck around once more with a call.

On the 6 river, Brooks opted to check as Hall toook some time to think before he did the same.

John Brooks: K10
Galen Hall: 86

Brooks flopped top pair while Hall flopped open-ended. However, Hall would go runner-runner two pair as he made the best hand to drag another pot.
