Hallay Sets the Trap
Level 21
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Axel Hallay opened to 350,000 from the cutoff with K?8?, and Chance Kornuth called from the button with A?5?.
Hallay made trips on the 8?8?2? flop and checked. Kornuth then fired for 220,000, and Hallay just called.
The 2? turn double-paired the board and filled up Hallay. Both players checked.
The 6? completed the board, and Hallay checked for a third time, continuing to set the trap with the best hand. Kornuth took the bait and bet 785,000. Hallay then made it 2,600,000, and Kornuth released his hand.
