Frick Doubles Very First Hand of Heads Up Play
Level 33
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
The players had just sitten down when Karim Frick open-jammed his button for 3,900,000 chips. Heinrich made the call from the big blind and the cards went open.
Karim Frick: A?8?
Anton Heinrich: Q?10?
With Frick at risk, Heinrich had a decent shot at taking down the tournament after one hand of heads up play. However, Frick hit his ace on 6?A?2?. The turn 10? brought some hope for Heinrich, but the 8? river saw Frick make two pair for the double-up and play continued.
