The Great Heinz Heist

Pius Heinz - has plenty of beans to keep him going!
Pius Heinz - has plenty of beans to keep him going!

The PokerNews Live Reporting Team has very little access to the secondary feature table, so our reporter had to squeeze through the six-deep rail to the viewing screen for this massive three-way all-in pre-flop situation between Pius Heinz, Sebastian Ruthenberg and Jared Vengrin.

We got there just in time to see the cards being tabled:

Heinz: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Vengrin: {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}
Ruthenberg: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

Ruthenberg took away Heinz' other queens for the gut-shot Broadway draw after the flop of {10-Clubs}{J-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, but the turn and river ran out {3-Clubs}, {8-Spades} and after the chips were cut down, Ruthenberg was left with around two million, but Vengrin had none.

With that virtual triple-up, Heinz is now sitting on a stack worth more than eight million!
