Hale Wins Huge Hand To Bust Guillen and Kim
Action folded to one of the largest stack in the room, Jhana Hale, in the cutoff seat and he raised to 1,300. Team PokerStars Pro Angel Guillen flat-called on the button and then action fell on Dong Kyu Kim in the small blind. Kim reraised all in for 14,850 and the big blind folded. Hale thought for a minute and then made the call of Kim's shove. Guillen had other things in mind though and reraised all in for 47,500.
Hale was now faced with a big decision for around half of his chips. He had already invested 14,850 into the hand and was faced with calling another 32,650. After a couple minutes of thought, Hale made the call to have both Guillen and Kim on the ropes. Here's what we saw.
