Heath Wins Battle of Blinds

Level 5 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ben Heath
Ben Heath

Action folded through the button before the flop, leaving Ben Heath in the small blind against Christoph Vogelsang in the big blind.

The situation got spicy when Heath raised to 25,000, and then Vogelsang three-bet to 67,000, which Heath called.

The dealer placed 5JQ on the board, which Heath checked. Vogelsang bet 36,000 and Heath called.

The turn slowed down the action when 5 appeared and both players checked to the river, where 5 appeared. Heath then took an aggressive line and led out with 212,000 and the move appeared to surprise Vogelsang, who removed his hoodie from his head and turned slightly in his chair to face Heath.

Vogelsang ran his fingers through his hair as he looked at his opponent, and then he shifted to look at the board. After a few seconds, Vogelsang folded.
