Heinz's Stack Takes a Hit Right Before Break

We caught up with the action three-handed on a {6-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop. One player checked from early position and a player in middle position fired 1,200 into the pot. Pius Heinz called directly behind him and the first player folded.

The turn brought the {Q-Clubs} and Heinz's opponent fired again - this time for 2,000. Heinz again called to see a river, which brought the {5-Hearts}. Heinz's opponent slowed down and checked, sending Heinz deep into the tank. After about a minute of thinking it through, Heinz checked behind and his opponent revealed {7-Clubs}{6-Clubs} for a flush. Heinz couldn't beat it and his opponent scooped the sizable pot.

Heinz was knocked down to 5,600 following the hand.
