Hallay Doubles Through Angelou-Konstas
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Axel Hallay had 465,000 out in front with a single T-25,000 chip behind and Ioannis Angelou-Konstas on the button then reraised to get the blinds out of the way.
"Can I take one minute?" Hallay politely asked and the Greek nodded, as did other players at the table while the event was on a pay jump. Ultimately, Hallay called all-in and they were off to the races.
Axel Hallay: A?K?
Ioannis Angelou-Konstas: Q?Q?
The most classic of coin flips saw Hallay it two aces on the A?A?5? flop.
"Queen on the river," he predicted. The 3? turn was a blank and so was the 6? river.
Hallay survived and next to fall from the same table was instead Julian M?rgner, who had secured the pay jump after an elimination on a different table.
