Rotem Halbani

Rotem Halbani opened under the gun and Albennes Armstrong three-bet to 185,000 from the middle position. Halbani came along to the Js6h5s flop and checked. Armstrong bet 200,000 and Halbani called.

The turn was 3s, Halbani checked, and Armstrong moved all in. Halbani thought for a minute and called with a similar stack.

Halbani: 9h9d
Armstrong: AcAd

Halbani ran into a monster and the 7d river finished the board. After counting down the stacks, Armstrong was all in for 400,000 and Halbani was left with 20,000 behind.

That went into the ante for the next hand when Fernando Rodriguez moved all in for 205,000 and Scott Woodring called in the small blind.

Woodring: 8d8c
Halbani: As3h
Rodriguez: Jh4h

There were a lot of different scenarios with those hands but Woodring’s eights held on the Kc6s3c5s6c run out to give him the pot while sending Halbani out in 15th place and Rodriguez in 14th.

Scott Woodring – 2,200,000 (110 bb)
Albennes Armstrong – 1,620,000 (81 bb)

14th: Fernando Rodriguez – $2,465
15th: Rotem Halbani – $2,020
