Heinz Gets There on the River.
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action was picked up on a flop, where two players were looking towards the middle at J♠A♣10♦ as well as 150,000. Jeffrey Novello of Team Novello bet out for 50,000, and Quirin Heinz of Team Heinz put in the call.
On the turn 4♠, Novello continued, this time sizing up to 150,000. Again, Heinz made the call, which brought in the K♥ on the river. "Check," announced Novello, instantly, before Heinz put out a bet of 375,000. "What a terrible river card," said Novello as he went into the tank. Eventually, he put in the call, only to see the terrible news that his opponent had rivered the nuts with A♥Q♠. Novello let the table know that he had flopped two pair.
