Heimiller Loses with/to AmichaiKK

Daniel "AmichaiKK" Makowsky raised on the button, and Dan Heimiller in the small blind three-bet. Makowsky added another 12,000 on top, and Heimiller raised yet again. Then Makowsky shoved. "Wow, wow. I don't like this one bit," Heimiller said. "But I have to call. We're too far from the money not to call." And it played out just as he expected.

Heimiller: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Makowsky: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

The board came an uninteresting {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Hearts}{j-Spades}{8-Spades}. Everyone at the table thought Makowsky had him covered, but Heimiller calmly counted out all of his chips. "You just can't stretch it," said one of his tablemates. And indeed, he couldn't. Heimiller's 132,000 all went to Makowsky, putting him up to 305,000. "All that money behind, and you just couldn't get away from it," said the same player. "Nice playing with you." We don't blame Heimiller for not agreeing.
