Hallay Gets Paid

Level 15
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Nacho Barbero raised to 50,000 from middle position and the action folded to Axel Hallay, who defended the big blind. Hallay then check-called the 40,000 continuation-bet of Barbero on the J?3?5? flop before both players checked the J? turn.
The A? river appeared and Hallay opted to lead out for 130,000 chips. Barbero spent two time bank extensions before making the call, but mucked his cards once he saw the A?10? of his opponent, who had rivered top pair.
