Heath Brings the Heat
Level 5
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Axel Hallay open-raised from the cutoff before facing a three-bet from Ben Heath in the big blind. Hallay made the call, and the two were battling over a pot of 60,000 chips.
The 10♠A♦J♠ flop was fanned out and Heath continued for 18,000 chips. Hallay pondered for a while before making the call, and the same sequence happened on the 6♦ turn, for an amount of 80,000 this time.
The 6♣ river completed the board and Heath completed his tripple barrel with a bet of 87,000. This time, Hallay let his hand go, and Heath raked in the pot without a showdown.
