Hein Forces Luske Off

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

With a board of {7-Clubs}{q-Spades}{7-Hearts} in front of them, Hans Joachim Hein checked, a player in early position bet 100,000, and Marcel Luske called. With action back on Hein, he raised to 350,000, and just Luske called. The turn was the {2-Spades}, and both players checked to the {8-Diamonds} on the river. Hein bet 575,000, and that sent Luske into the tank.

Not long passed before Luske folded and showed the table {a-}{q-}, hoping his opponent would oblige. Hein mucked, though, and was pushed the sizeable pot.
