Lonnie Hallett opens from early postion and is three-bet to 12,500 by Alfie Poetra. Hallett calls and the two players go heads-up to a flop of Spade 3Spade 8Club 10 which sees a check from Hallett, a bet of 9,000 from Poetra, and a call from Hallett. 

When the turn peels the Diamond 6, Hallett checks, Poetra continues for 23,000, Hallett check-raises to 48,000, and Poetra calls. 

The river falls the Heart 6 and Hallett moves all in for close to 85,000, sending Poetra into the tank. 

After around a minute, Poetra makes the call, which Hallett is not excited to hear as he sighs and flips over Heart KHeart 9 for just king-high. Poetra then proudly flips over Spade JClub J for two pair to take down the substantial pot while Hallett heads to the exit. 

Alfie Poetra – 387,000 (258 bb)
