Morris Pulls Ahead of Halatenko
Level 35
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Lou Garza raised to 1,500,000 out of the small blind with the A?Q?J?3?. Out of the big blind, Stanislav Halatenko, now bearing the Ukrainian flag around his shoulders, repotted to 4,500,000 with the A?K?J?8?.
Garza went deep into the tank and reluctantly folded.
Halatenko won the next pot and then folded the A?10?8?4? on the button, Arthur Morris let go of the Q?J?5?2? out of the small blind and Garza received a walk.
Morris raised the next button to 1,500,000 with the A?K?4?2? and Halatenko defended the J?9?3?3? in the big blind. They checked the 9?8?4? flop to the 4? turn on which Halatenko bet 900,000. Morris raised the pot and Halatenko folded instantly.
