Heath Heats Up

Level 5 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Ben Heath raised to 20,000 rom the cutoff. Blaz Zerjav called on the button.

The flop hit 3710. Heath bet 30,000. Zerjav called again.

When the Q showed up on the turn, Heath went all-in with his remaining 73,000 chips.

Zerjav took a while and a couple time banks before deciding to risk a third of his stack with a call.

Ben Heath: A10All in
Blaz Zerjav: J10

Heath had top pair with an ace kicker. Zerjav had top pair as well, but with a jack as its running mate.

The river 9 didn't flip the standing, and Heath earned a double-up.
