Spindler It Up

"Do you have any idea what happened to Max Heinzelmann?" we asked a member of the German media upon noticing that the unhappy Mr. Heinzelmann was down to just 7,000 or so.

But imagine our surprise when instead of a brief rundown of the hand, we got to witness it on video! The wonders of modern technology. German poker press, we salute you.

The short version, though, is that Benny Spindler got his whole stack in on the turn of a {10-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} board with {4-Spades}{5-Spades} for a straight, Heinzelmann holding {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flush draw and gutshot outs to a chop. The river though was a non-diamond {a-}, and Spindler doubled to 125,000, leaving Heinzelmann near the felt.
