Hallman Spikes the River to Stay Alive
Level 41
: 1,000,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
James Gilbert open-jammed all in from late position for around 18,000,000, and action was on Wanda Hallman in the hijack, who also moved all in but for less. The blinds folded quickly.
Wanda Hallman: A♣A♦
James Gilbert: J♦10♦
Not the flop Hallman was looking for came 10♣3♣9♥, and when the 10♠ peeled off on the turn, it was looking grim. However, the poker gods must have been reading Barry Greenstein today and served up the A♠ on the river to make Hallman a full house for a double-up.
