Hand #78: Pius Heinz

Level 38 : 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante

Eoghan O'Dea had the button, and the table folded through him to the blinds. In the small, Phil Collins opened with a raise to 2.2 million. Big blind Pius Heinz flatted, and the flop came {8-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {J-Clubs}. Collins continued out with 2 million, and Heinz took pause before coming along with another call.

There was 9 million in the pot heading to the {4-Hearts} turn, and now Collins slowed down with a check. Heinz checked it back, and the {J-Hearts} filled out the board. Collins took his cue to bet again now, and he settled on 3.3 million to put Heinz to the test. It would be another long while before he acted, but when he did, he did so with a heavy fist. His fans reacted with nervous anticipation as he slid out a raise to 10.1 million straight, drawing a stare and an eventual fold from Collins.

"USCPhildo" is back down under 20 million now, while Heinz rebounds over 60 million once again.

Hand #73: Collins Spikes a Double

Level 38 : 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante

Phil Collins had the button.

Collins raised all in for 13.575 million and Ben Lamb called from the big blind. Just like that, the cards were on their backs.

Collins: {Q-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Lamb: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

The flop came down {K-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and Lamb stayed in front. Take note that Collins held the only diamond in the hand.

The turn {10-Diamonds} was about as sweatastic as you could get, giving Collins a flush draw and an open-ended straight draw.

The dealer slowly burned and then dealt the {Q-Diamonds} on the river, spiking Collins with a flush. His cheering section erupted as Collins raked in the pot to double up to over 28 million.
