Hallaert Playing a Few Hands
Kenny Hallaert found himself involved in a few hands in a row and we stuck around to see the outcome. On a board reading 
, Christopher Frank bet 700,000 from the small blind into a pot of around 1.8 million. Hallaert was in the big blind and raised all in for a little over 3 million. Frank tanked for a bit but then folded.
In the next hand, the action was folded to Hallaert in the small blind who raised to 325,000. David Peters called from the big blind and the flop fell 
. Hallaert continued for 250,000 and Peters called. Both players checked the 
on the turn and the 
on the river. Hallaert tabled 
and Peters showed 
for two pair to take the pot.
After that, Hallaert was on the button and was heads-up with Dan Shak in the big blind. The flop came 
and Shak led out for 500,000 into a pot over 600,000. Hallaert called and the landed on the turn. Shak fired another 850,000 and Hallaert stuck around to see the on the river. Shak bet an even 1 million and Hallaert raised to 2.6 million. Shak thought for a couple of moments but elected to fold sending another pot to Hallaert.
