Level 19 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Dan Heimiller limped in under the gun, Vitalijs Korhs called on the button and the big blind checked their option.

Once the action had been checked to Heimiller on a flop of A♥6♥9♦, he bet out for 20,000. Only Korhs called.

The A♦ turn checked through to the J♣ on the river. Heimiller checked and then folded to a bet of 30,000 from Korhs.
