Halford Fairchild

Halford Fairchild went all in from the small blind for his last 15,000,000 and was called and covered by Michael Monroig in the big blind.

Halford Fairchild: K♣J♦All in
Michael Monroig: K♥6♣

Fairchild was in a dominant position to double, and the flop only lengthened his lead when it came J♥7♦3♦ to give him top pair.

The 3♥ turn sealed it in his favor before the 9♠ completed the board to award Fairchild the double-up.
