Heinz continued out with 5 million, and Staszko called to see the on the turn. It went check-check this time, and the filled out the board. Staszko checked a third time, and Heinz decided a river bet of 8.5 million was in order. Surprisingly, though, his opponent clicked it back, making the minimum check-raise to 17 million total.
