With around 975,000 in the pot, the turn was . Burns checked again and Heinke continued, putting out another bet for 440,000. Burns thought for close to two minutes and then settled on a call.

The river fell . Burns checked one last time and Heinke put out a bet of 525,000. Burns went deep into the tank, ultimately resulting in another player calling a clock on him after over six minutes of thought. He used up half of the allotted 30 seconds before slamming down a chip to call.

Heinke immediately tabled in a confident fashion that his top pair was good. Burns slammed down his cards to muck them; meanwhile, Heinke stood up and gave a quick fist pump before sitting right back down.
