Hallabro's Aces Trap Backfires
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Yannis Berrandou raised to 1,200 from under the gun and Lars Romundstad three-bet to 3,700 in the hijack. Marcus Hallabro called on the button, and Berrandou also called.
On the Q?3?6? flop, Berrandou checked and Romundstad bet 6,300. Hallabro then shoved, Berrandou folded, and Romundstad called.
Marcus Hallabro: A?A? 
Lars Romundstad: A?K?
Hallabro had laid the trap with aces but it didn't work out as he was left drawing dead after the 4? fell on the turn, which improved Romundstad to an unbeatable flush. A meaningless 3? completed the board, and Hallabro was eliminated.
