Break for the Final Duo

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 25,000 ante

The next level comes to an end, which means the duo is heading into a 15-minute break.

On the {10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs} turn, Traian Bostan check-called a bet worth 800,000 by Eli Heath with {3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and his opponent only had {Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, then gave up the {J-Diamonds} river to let Bostan win the pot.

Heath took some chips back with {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} versus {9-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} after firing the {Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop for 400,000 and picking up a call before the {10-Clubs} on the turn saw him win the pot with another barrel.

Nothing much has been happening in the heads-up duel lately and the increasing blinds will soon make it more shallow.

Important Pot for Heath

Level 31 : 125,000/250,000, 25,000 ante

Soon after coming back from the break, Eli Heath won a smaller pot with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} versus {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} before taking a bigger pot off Traian Bostan.

Bostan min-raised with the {J-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Heath called with {6-Spades}{4-Spades}. On the {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop, Heath check-called a bet of 500,000 and the {7-Hearts} on the turn was checked by both. After the {5-Hearts} river, Heath bet 1,100,000 with his straight and Bostan quickly called, then mucked.

Standing Still

Level 31 : 125,000/250,000, 25,000 ante

Traian Bostan definitely has some run good in this heads up duel and takes most of the pots as of lately. In a limped pot with {J-Spades}{4-Spades}, he flopped two pair against the {10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} of Eli Heath on {J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}.

Heath check-called a bet of 250,000 and then check-folded the {A-Clubs} turn.

Then, Bostan tried to bluff by betting the {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{8-Spades}{A-Spades} turn with the {6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and Heath check-called his bet of 300,000 with {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. On the {Q-Diamonds} river, Bostan checked behind and then smiled when he spotted the hand of his opponent.

In a limped pot , Eli Heath checked the flop of {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} with {9-Hearts}{2-Spades} for middle pair. Traian Bostan checked behind with {Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and then bet the {Q-Clubs} turn with his top pair to rake in the pot.
