Heath Wins Biggest Pot of the Night to Take Huge Chip Lead

Level 32 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante
Gerald Heath
Gerald Heath

Gerald Heath was in the small blind and opened to 500,000. Nicola Ditrapani defended his big blind and the two saw a flop of {4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{k-Hearts}. Heath made a continuation-bet of 500,000 and Ditrapani clicked it back, raising the minimum to 1 million.

Heath went into the tank for some time and then three-bet all in, and Ditrapani quickly called.

Gerald Heath: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Nicola Ditrapani: {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The two got stacks in for around three-quarters of all chips in play in a situation between a set and a flush draw. The turn came {9-Diamonds} and the river fell behind it {a-Spades} to leave Ditrapani's draw dry. Stacks were totaled and Heath barely had Ditrapani covered, leaving him crippled as four-handed play continues.
