"You Are Doing Great, Keep It Up"

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Thomas Heine started the day in the middle of the pack, but has since become one of the chip leaders in the Amazon Purple section after almost tripling his stack.

In a recent pot, Heine bet the {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{K-Diamonds} river for 10,000 and his sole opponent called to see Heine turn over {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} as winning hand. "You are doing great, keep it up," Heine said when turning to the dealer and raked in another pot.

The next hand, Noel Eicher raised to 4,500 and Noah Vaillancourt three-bet to 12,000 from one seat over. Eicher called and the flop fell {9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}. Eicher checked, Vaillancourt bet 10,200 and folded to Eicher's check-raise to 25,000. Vaillancourt is in the seat that formerly belonged to Joe Gotlieb, who has been eliminated early on.
