Big Hands and Storylines:
Joachim Berg-Jensen Eliminated By Dan Heimiller
Dan Heimiller raised from early position and action folded around to Joachim Berg-Jensen in the small blind. Berg-Jensen shoved for 255,000 and was called by Heimiller. Berg-Jensen had A
K
but Heimiller had Q
Q and a slight lead. The flop was ten-high and rainbow, and Berg-Jensen was left to catch either an ace or king on the turn/river to take down the pot and continue on in the tournament. The turn was the 2 and Berg-Jensen was down to one final card. The river was the 3 and that was all she wrote for Berg-Jensen.
Heimiller Eliminates Another
Brock Mishler opened the betting by moving all-in on the button for approximately 200,000. Dan Heimiller made the call from the big blind and then two showed their cards:
Mishler: J10
Heimiller: A8
The board came down 7735Q and Heimiller’s ace-high would hold up to take down the pot, eliminating Mishler.
This pot brought Heimiller’s stack to nearly 1,300,000, but he would later be cut down to 710,000 after a failed bluff attempt against Jeffery Courtney.
