Niklas ¡°ragen70¡± Heinecker

Whenever we report about a player winning or losing more than a million dollars in a week playing online, more times than not that player is Viktor ��Isildur1�� Blom. Well, this week that was not the case.

Niklas ��ragen70�� Heinecker, who won the GuangDong Asia Millions in June for $4.46 million, earned the distinction of the week��s biggest winner after he banked an incredible $1,897,290 in 4,856 hands over 37 sessions �C which averages out to $390.71 per hand. On the flip side, the downslide of ��MalACEsia�� continued as he lost $1,055,541 in 2,526 hands over 25 sessions �C an average loss of $417.87 per hand.

Other winners this week, albeit at a fraction of Heinecker��s score, were ��proudlikeagoat�� (+$436,227 in 23 sessions/1,570 hands), Alex ��IReadYrSoul�� Millar (+$349,650 in 15 sessions/1,242 hands), Gus Hansen (+$254,559 in 13 sessions/688 hands) and Kyle ��cottonseed1�� Hendon (+$223,216 in 6 sessions/269 hands).

Joining ��MalACEsia�� in the loser column were ��Call_911�� (-$815,700 in 22 sessions/1,983 hands), Viktor ��Isildur1�� Blom (-$724,266 in 56 sessions/4,347 hands), ��John R Turk�� (-$430,203 in 9 sessions/534 hands), Kyle ��KPR16�� Ray (-$302,302 in 13 sessions/1,136 hands) and last week��s biggest winner, Ben ��Bttech86�� Tollerene (-$225,148 in 11 sessions/541 hands).

Millar Over Blom in 10 Minutes; Heinecker Saturday��s Biggest Winner

Last week, Alex ��IReadYrSoul�� Millar lost $308,487 in just 1,018 hands of poker. On Saturday, Aug. 17, Millar rebounded by winning $273,000 playing $400/$800 no-limit hold��em against Viktor ��Isildur1�� Blom. Incredibly, he did so in just 40 hand over 10 minutes!

It was during that time that Millar won two significant pots over $200,000. Here��s a look at both:

Alex Millar & Viktor Blom

Hand #1: Millar ($142,758.50) opened for $2,700 only to have Blom ($127,239.50) three-bet to $9,600. Not to be outdone, Millar four-bet to $24,800 and then called when Blom shoved all in. Just like that, there was a $254,479 pot on the line.

Millar: K?K?
Blom: A?K?

According to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, Millar was a 69.61% favorite to win the hand while Blom would come from behind 29.60%. The J?K?9? flop gave Millar a set and improved him to a 94.55% favorite, while Blom��s chances of winning dropped to 5.45%. The 4? turn made things interesting as it gave Blom the flush draw he needed �C giving him an increased 18.18% chance of winning the hand �C but the A? river failed to complete it.

Hand #2: Blom ($102,047.50) opened for $2,400 and then called when Millar ($137,945.50) three-bet to $7,500, which brought about a flop of 7?4?J?. Millar bet $6,400, Blom called and the 9? arrived on the turn. This time Millar slowed down with a check and Blom took the opportunity to fire out $18,400. Millar then woke up with an all-in check-raise and Blom called off his remaining $69,747.50. Millar had turned the nuts with the 10?8?, which was ahead of Blom��s J?9? for a turned two pair. The 5? failed to pair the board on the river and Millar was awarded the $204,095 pot.

As if things couldn��t get any worse for Blom, he went on to lose $179,000 to Kyle ��KPR16�� Ray at the $2,000/$4,000 fixed-limit Omaha Hi/Lo tables. Blom mitigated his losses in other games and ended up losing $236,000 on the day.

In was also on Saturday that Niklas ��ragen70�� Heinecker won $300,800, enough to make him the day��s biggest winner. The vast majority of that came at the $400/$800 NLHE tables, where the following pot took place:

Heinecker Continues His Winning Ways

Winning $300,000 in a day is great, but doing it back to back is even better. That��s a feeling Niklas ��ragen70�� Heinecker got to experience last weekend after he followed up Saturday��s $300,800 win with a $328,900 one playing $400/$800 NLHE on Sunday.

In his biggest pot, action was five handed when ��HelicopterBen82�� ($80,000) opened for $2,400 under the gun only to have ��John R Turk�� ($153,964.29) three-bet to $8,000 from the button. Heinecker ($143,148.60) then made it $19,200 from the small blind, ��HelicopterBen82�� got out of the way, and ��John R Turk�� five-bet to $42,200. A six-bet shove from Heinecker followed and ��John R Turk�� called.

��John R Turk��: K?K?
Heinecker: A?K?

The two agreed to run it twice, and Heinecker got lucky when the 5?A?3?5?8? on the first gave him a winning pair of aces for half the pot. Much to ��John R Turk��s�� dismay, the 5?A?2?7?10? on the second did the same and Heinecker scooped the $289,944 pot.

That pot was nice, but it wasn��t the biggest of the day. That happened at a six-handed table when ��HelicopterBen82�� ($131,133.50) opened for $2,800, ��Call_911�� ($151,824.89) called and ��MalACEsia�� ($287,859.09) three-bet to $10,400 from the button. The blinds folded, ��HelicopterBen82�� called and then ��Call_911�� four-bet to $30,300. ��MalACEsia�� responded with a five-bet to $55,000, ��HelicopterBen82�� folded and ��Call_911�� moved all in. ��MalACEsia�� called the additional $96,824.89 and it was off to the races.

��MalACEsia��: Q?Q?
��Call_911��: A?K?

The 4?8?9? flop didn��t hit ��Call_911�� directly, but it did give him a flush draw to go with his overs. The 2? turn completed the said flush, and just like that ��MalACEsia�� was drawing dead. The meaningless 10? was run out on the river for good measure to give ��Call_911�� the $315,847 pot.

Heinecker Banks $803,000 in Wednesday Action

Heinecker

It was German domination this week as evidenced by Niklas ��ragen70�� Heinecker��s performance on Wednesday, which is when he won a whopping $803,500. He did so by playing and winning $160,000 in a three-hour morning session, followed by a four-hour session in the evening when he won an additional $640,000.

In his biggest pot, action was six-handed when Heinecker ($500,005.40) opened for $2,000 from the hijack and cleared the field to ��MalACEsia�� ($201,175), who three-bet to $7,200 from the big blind. Heinecker called and it was heads-up action to the 9?5?7? flop. ��MalACEsia�� led out for $9,600 and then made it $80,000 to go after Heinecker raised to $25,600. The German simply moved all in and ��MalACEsia�� called off his remaining $113,825.

��MalACEsia��: A?Q?
Heinecker: 8?6?

Heinecker had flopped the nuts, but he needed to avoid a spade to hold. That��s exactly what he did as the 7? and 2? appeared on the turn and river respectively. The $403,347 pot was shipped to Heinecker.

��MalACEsia�� was ravaged by Heinecker, and a couple others, before finishing the day down $914,000. It was a devastating loss, but fortunately he was able to get $829,100 of it back on Thursday after grinding for 9.5 hours. During that time there were some monster pots.

In one, action was six-handed when ��proudlikeagoat�� ($171,832) opened for $2,400 from the hijack and ��MalACEsia�� ($311,099.20) three-bet to $7,200 from the cutoff. The button and blinds all folded, ��proudlikeagoat�� four-bet to $18,400 and the flop came down 9?10?5? after ��MalACEsia�� called. ��Proudlikeagoat�� was first to act and led out for $39,000, which prompted ��MalACEsia�� to move all in. ��Proudlikeagoat�� called off the $114,432 he had behind and the cards were turned up.

��MalACEsia��: A?Q?
��proudlikeagoat��: 8?6?

Both players had flopped a flush draw, but ��MalACEsia��s�� was best. He was actually out in front with his ace high, but ��proudlikeagoat�� was drawing to two live cards as well as a non-heart seven. The 10? turn was of little consequence, while the 3? river gave both players the flush. ��MalACEsia��s�� was best and he won the $345,461 pot.

Even though he won that pot, ��MalACEsia�� did lose the biggest pot of the day, which was a $423,800 monster. Have a look:
