Heich Recovers

Christian Heich
Christian Heich
Just as he had finally drawn level to Christian Heich, Steve Topakas suffered a major setback. He opened for 190,000 from the button and was called by Heich. The flop was {K-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Heich checked and then called a bet of 220,000.

Both players checked through the {5-Diamonds} turn. When the river fell {2-Hearts}, Heich made a sizable bet of 375,000. Topakas seemed pained by this bet, removing his sunglasses as he contemplated a decision. He finally made a brave call. Heich showed {K-Clubs} {J-Spades} for a pair of kings; Topakas flashed a king of his own before mucking his hand.

With that win, Heich has climbed up the counts to 2.5 million in chips. He once again has a two-to-one chip lead on Topakas.
