Dan Heimiller Eliminated in 19th Place ($11,479)

Dan Heimiller - 19th place
Dan Heimiller - 19th place

Dan Heimiller probably didn't expect that his Day 3 in this event would conclude so swiftly. He played a hand against Perry Green, the second-place player to start the day. They two were heads-up to a flop of {k-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{j-Spades}, with Green checking and then calling a bet of 70,000 from Heimiller.

The turn {7-Diamonds} produced lots of drama when Green bet pot, which was enough to put the shorter-stacked Heimiller all in if he called. Heimiller tought that matter through for about two to three minutes before saying, "I've got to gamble," and putting his whole stack at risk with a call.

Heimiller: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Spades}, a pair of eights and the nut spade draw
Green: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Spades}, the nut low draw and the nut diamond draw

It turned out that Heimiller's hand was in the lead, but he'd need to dodge a boat-load of outs in order to scoop the pot. Heimiller's worst-case scenario was realized when a diamond, {k-Diamonds}, hit the river to give Green the nut flush. Heimiller was out of board cards and thus is out of chips. He leaves in 19th place.

We're now re-drawing to two tables.
