Heine Chops One and Then Busts One

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

After action folded around to Keith Heine, he raised to 20,000 from the cutoff, which got folds from the players on the button and in the small blind.

Bill Byrnes, who was in the big blind and had a dominating chipstack, then put out a stack of 25,000 chips, which was more than Heine had.

Heine called and both players tabled their hands.

Heine: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Byrne: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Spades}, which resulted in a chopped pot.

However, Heine fared much better on the very next hand.

The UTG player shoved all in and Heine immediately called all-in with what looked to be an almost identical chipstack, and the remaining players got out of the way.

The players tabled their hands and Heine saw that he was ahead and needed his hand to hold, which it did on the {7-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} board.

Heine: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
UTG: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

The dealer counted down the stacks and confirmed that Heine did have the UTG player covered, but not by much.
