Heath Spikes a Two-Outer for a Double Up
Level 22
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Ben Heath raised to 2,400,000 from under the gun and Joao Vieira just called in the cutoff. The rest of the table folded and the dealer fanned the flop of A♥J♠9♠. Heath tossed in his last 50,000 chips and Vieira quickly called.
Ben Heath: 9♥9♣
Joao Vieira: Q♣Q♦
Heath spiked a two-outer on the flop to take the lead and looked in great shape to double up. The 8♣ on the turn gave Vieira a straight draw but the 7♣ on the river bricked out, giving Heath a double up.
