Healey Takes First Bite Out Of Koon, Ausmus Leading Johnson

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Preflop Jason Koon opened to 10,000 from the button. From the big blind Dan Healey reraised to 25,000. Koon just called.

On the {4-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} flop, Healey led out for 20,000. Koon called.

The turn was the {K-Spades} and both players checked.

The {j-Clubs} came on the river and Healey led again, this time for 50,000. Koon called quickly. Healey showed {K-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for trip kings, and Koon mucked, allowing Healey to take the first big pot of the match.

At the next table over, Jeremy Ausmus had a bet of 75,000 in front of him on a board reading {3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{3-}{q-Hearts} . Johnson thought it over for a bit, then eventually folded. Ausmus has started to create a noticeable lead between the two in that heads-up match.
