River Gives Heggelmann Chip Lead
Level 12
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Niko Heggelmann opened to 6,500 from the hijack before Koppany Balogh made it 18,000 on the button. Heggelmann four-bet to 56,000 and Balogh paused. He waited about 30 seconds before moving all-in for 137,500.
Heggelmann, who was the covering stack, asked for a count. He eventually slid in his chips to set up the all-in showdown.
Koppany Balogh: ![]()
![]()
Niko Heggelmann: ![]()
![]()
Balogh had his opponent drawing extremely thin on the ![]()
![]()
flop and looked to scoop a massive double on the
turn.
For some reason, Balogh called for a ten on the river. And that's exactly what came in the form of the
river.
The table erupted and Balogh congratulated Heggelmann who let out a huge sigh of relief.
