Heinz vs. Johnson

Pius Heinz raised to 175,000 from middle position and action folded to Kyle Johnson in the cutoff. He opted for a three-bet to 430,000, which cleared the field back to Heinz. After a call, the flop fell {K-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Heinz ended up check-calling a bet of 450,000.

When the dealer burned and turned the {J-Diamonds}, Heinz checked once again and Johnson fired out 1,000,000. Heinz then came alive with a check-raise to 3.9 million, which proved enough to push Johnson out of the hand.
