Heath’s Big Raise Gets a Customer

Monika Kostanjevec

Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Six players saw the flop of 9?A?2?. After both blinds checked, the player under the gun bet 3,000. The bet got called by the player in early position, while the player in middle position folded. Action was then on Greg Heath on the button, who made it 15,000. Both blinds folded, as did the player under the gun.

The last player left in the hand was the early position and after some thought, he decided to go all in for a few thousand more. Heath said he was worried about a set but called.

Early position: A?7? All in
Greg Heath: A?9?

The turn and river came the K? and 7? respectively and while Heath’s opponent also made two pair by the river, Heath’s aces and nines took down the pot.
