Hallaert Finds a Fold to Stewart's Big River Raise
Kenny Hallaert raised to 110,000 from middle position, and Scott Stewart three-bet to 355,000 from the hijack. Hallaert called, and then check-called a bet of 280,000 on the flop. Both players checked the turn, and the river was the . Hallaert led for 450,000, and Stewart raised to 1,570,000.
The TV cameras swarmed around to try and catch a glimpse of any impeding action. However, their eyes were drawn to an all-in playing out at a neighboring table, and they headed off there.
"At least it's less embarrassing now if I call and you have it," said Hallaert, "What's your name, by the way?"
Stewart remained silent. Eventually, the cameras returned just in time to catch Hallaert fold.
"My name's Scott," replied Stewart, "And I'll tell you at the end of the day, if you'd like." He paused. "After I've checked the seating draw!"
