Yigal Hen

On a flop of 7h5d5s, a player in early position checked and two players behind him checked in middle position before Yigal Hen bet 3,000 from the hijack.

The early position player called, one middle position player folded, and the other called. They were three-handed to the 9h and both early and middle position check again. Hen bets 6,000 and the early position player check-raises all in for about 20,000.

The player in between them folds and Hen calls. Hen shows 9d7s, good for nines and sevens, and is in the lead against his opponent’s Td9s.

The river is the 3d and Hen takes the pot. Yigal isn’t the only Hen with poker skills. He is brothers with Ory Hen, who has a laundry list of cashes here at the Hard Rock alone.

Yigan Hen – 56,000
