Heath Gets a Full Bang for His Buck
Level 13
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Just before the break, Ben Heath and Nikita Kuznetsov were heads-up on the turn with the board reading and a little over 200,000 in the middle. Kuznetsov checked from the big blind and Heath made a bet of 165,000 on the button. Kuznetsov called and the completed the board.
Kuznetsov checked again and Heath shipped all in for 717,000. Kuznetsov dipped hard into the tank, using all of his remaining time banks as some of the players left for their break. With his last seconds being counted down, Kuznetsov finally threw in a chip to call.
Heath rolled over for top two pair and Kuznetsov sent his cards flying into the muck. Heath scored a massive double up to become one of the chip leaders in the tournament.
