John Richards opens to 1,200,000 from the hijack and Ben Heath calls from the cutoff while the rest of the table gets out of the way. 

The flop comes out Club QClub 7Club 5 and Richards continues for 1,400,000, which Heath calls. 

On the turn Spade 6, Richards fires again for 3,600,000 and Heath uses a time bank before he tosses in the call. 

The river falls the Spade 10 and Richards checks to Heath who uses another time bank as he eyes Richards, then sets out a bet of 7,000,000. 

Richards takes only a few seconds to think before he tosses in a chip as a call, but then Heath rolls over Club AClub 10 for the flopped nut flush. Richards sighs and holds a brief hand funeral before he lets his cards go and the substantial pot is pushed over to Heath. 

Ben Heath – 52,000,000 (87 bb)
John Richards – 24,500,000 (41 bb)
