Heiberg on a Heater

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante
Jeff Heiberg
Jeff Heiberg

Jeff Heiberg, who sits second on Wyoming's all-time tournament money list has been spotted with one of the biggest stacks in the room.

He passed along a rush of hands over the last couple of levels that included flopping a set of sixes against his opponent's {a-}{j-} on an {a-}{j-}{6-} flop to bust them, making a king-high flush over an opponent's smaller flush, and to top it off, he made a straight flush as well.

Heiberg's heater has vaulted him over 100,000 in chips.

Zian Runs into Aces

Level 5 : 300/500, 500 ante

Sascha Zian was down to her last 7,100 chips and moved all in from middle position. Terry Williams called to her immediate left and action was folded around from there.

Sascha Zian: {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Terry Williams: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Zian ran into Williams' aces at the worst possible time, and the runout of {4-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds} gave Williams a straight to eliminate her from the tournament.

"Magic" Mike Piles Over Half His Table

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

After an opening raise in early position to 800, Josh Jackson three-bet to 1,600 from the cutoff. The button and small blind called, and Mike Wilkinson, who has requested to be known as "Magic" MIke, piled his entire stack of approximately 35,000 over top of everyone.

The original raiser folded and with action back on him, Jackson gave his decision some thought, as a call would be for almost his entire stack.

After about a minute of deliberation, Jackson folded, as did the rest of the table, giving "Magic" Mike the pot.

Wlkinson turned over {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and asked Jackson what he folded. Jackson replied that he folded queens.
