Hallaert Finds a Fold, Drops Under a Million
From middle position, Richard Robinson opened with a raise to 75,000. Action folded around to Daniel Sammarco who called from the small blind. Kenny Hallaert tagged along from the big blind.
On the 
flop, Sammarco led out with a bet of 125,000. Hallaert called and, after thinking about it for a while, Robinson called as well.
The turn was the 
, completing a straight draw. Sammarco and Hallaert both checked, then Robinson moved all in for 585,000. Sammarco quickly folded and that left Hallaert with the decision. For him to call it would cost him most of his stack.
Hallaert let out a deep sigh, leaned back, and dropped into the tank.
"Can I get a count please?" Hallaert asked. He tanked for nearly four minutes, cracking his knuckles, looking at the clocking, cutting out how many chips he would have left after he called. "Sorry guys," Hallaert said. Eventually, he kicked forward one of his cards, then another, folding.
"Show a fun card!" Someone said to Robinson at the table.
"They're both fun cards," Robinson said.
Hallaert cracked a smile despite losing the pot and dropping down under 1 million chips.
