Hein Hits a Set of Fours
Level 8
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
By the time we arrived, there was the 
flop spread in the middle and Hans Hein had bet 2,600 from the button. Jackie Glazier check-raised to 8,000 out of the big and a player in a middle position came over the top, check-shoving for 19,000. Hein slid in a huge pile of orange chips to cover Glazier's 70,000 or so and Glazier walked out of the way.
Hein was in great shape, having flopped a set of fours with 
. The all-in player turned up 
, hoping to catch an ace or some backdoor draw. The 
turn narrowed his outs to the last two bullets in the deck and the 
river eliminated him from contention. Hein raked in a sizeable pot and improved into 285,000.
