Heinzl Counterfeits His Opponent

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

The board read {j-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{7-Hearts} with a little over 20,000 chips in the middle already. Joshua Heinzl was heads-up with the big blind and the two players got all of their chips in the middle, with the big blind at risk for around 28,000.

Heinzl tabled {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} but was up against the {j-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} of his opponent. Heinzl needed some help on the river and it came in the form of the {7-Diamonds}. His opponent's two pair was counterfeited and Heinzl scooped the pot with the better kicker.
