Heskin Wreaks Havoc!

Level 6 : 300/600, 0 ante

Michael "Sticky" Guttman may have built his stack up even more, but he's just been surpassed for the chip lead by Melbourne's own Dave Heskin.

Earlier, Guttman moved up to 65,000 after eliminating another opponent when his {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} improved to a set on the board of {3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{2-Spades}{K-Spades} against his opponent's {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}.

However, we managed to squeeze through the crowd which had built up around 28 to see Heskin and Jason Samsonov get all their money into a flop of {2-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}. Samsonov had tried to shove Heskin off the hand with {A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} (good for the nut flush draw), but Heskin wasn't going anywhere with his {Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{3-Clubs} for bottom set.

Needing any diamond, Samsonov was in the red after the turn and the river ran black, in the form of {5-Spades}, {K-Spades}. Samsonov stormed off and Heskin was more than happy to stack up his chips, worth more than 90,000 and putting him up as the clear chip leader!
