Rheem Pays Off Hecklen

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

The TV crews swarmed around the table with a big pot brewing between Chino Rheem and Henrik Hecklen. The board read {a-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{j-Spades} and Rheem checked to Hecklen who tossed in a bet of 330,000.

Rheem was in the tank but still chatting up a storm. "One more second guys, I promise. I'm just really hoping he shows be ace-ten. That's all I can beat." Hecklen sat silently waiting for Rheem to make a decision.

After a few more seconds, Rheem banged his chips into the pot and Hecklen showed him the bad news. "Flush," he said as he turned over {7-Spades}{6-Spades} to scoop a healthy pot from Rheem.
