Heitmann Hits the Rail

Apr 18, '09

578 players began the day and 466 remain. Not among them however is Greg Raymer or Jan Heitmann.

Coming in late into the action, the board read 9 5 3 9 and there was 4,500 in the pot. The river fell the A and Aku Visuri bet a massive 12,000. This caught Heitmann off guard and he contemplated the call, which would put him all in, for five minutes. Eventually, clock was called and he shoved his remaining 6,500 in to the middle. Visuri flipped over 10 9 and without a word Heitmann hit the rail.

Bubble Boy: Toby Newton

Mar 12, '09

A short stacked Toby Newton is the unfortunate bubble boy. He got it all in with pocket sixes against Italian Claudio Cecchi's A4.

The board fell A-2-10-J and with one more card to determine Newton's tournament life, he had just two outs. The river came an 8 and it was all over. It's sad but someone has to do it, and now 64 players can relax a bit because they are in the money.

Coming away from the field, Jan Heitmann was spotted talking to friends at the bar. He bust before the bubble after a great two days of play.
