The Beast of Hallaert
![[user340093]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Kenny Hallaert has had tremendous success in WSOP no-limit hold'em events, but he's still missing the bracelet in his showcase.
Hallaert, however, keeps his foot firmly on the gas pedal, crushing and crushing until he binks.
He's off to a great start here in the $5K no-limit hold'em event, having just busted an opponent to vault to 85,000.
The action was seen on the river with just under 20,000 in the pot. The board read 
and Hallaert's opponent checked out of the big blind. Hallaert was in the hijack and slid in a 20,000-chip bet, covering his rival's remaining stack of what looked to be 17,600.
After a little bit of tanking, a call followed and that was music to Hallaert's ears as he turned up 
for a set. His opponent mucked but the players at the table demanded his hand to be turned over and became apparent he tried to catch Hallaert with 
.
"You're such a beast, Kenny," one of the players at the table complimented Hallaert. "Always got a set."
"I always have it," Hallaert agreed.
