Russo Gets the Better of Halevy
Niveau 36
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Michael Halevy and Nikhil Nair got all their chips in the middle preflop with both sides feeling confident in their holdings. That changed when their hands were revealed.
Michael Halevy: J♦J♠
Louis Russo: Q♥Q♦
Halevy needed to find a jack or a miracle. The flop did help him some as the dealer presented, 9♥7♣10♣, making it so he could add an eight to the short list of his available outs. The turn was the A♠ and once the 6♣ fell, there was no more hope to fall back on as Halevy was sent to the payouts.
Nikhil Nair was also seen at this table and it seems he's been quietly accumulating chips as the day marches on.
