Five-Bet from Balsiger

From the hijack seat, Russell Thomas raised to 250,000. Jacob Balsiger reraised to 525,000 out of the cutoff seat before play folded to Jan Heitmann on the button. He made it 1.1 million to go with a reraise and action moved back to Thomas. He folded, but Balsiger reraised to two million. Heitmann folded and Balsiger won the pot.
