Heller Sends Wazwaz To Reload
A player in early position opened the action with a raise to 500 and was called by players in middle position and in the cutoff. Nathan Heller was on the button and also called before Steve Wazwaz announced he was all in out of the big blind.
The original raiser asked for a count and Wazwaz's stack was totaled to be 6,100. He then folded. The player in middle position called, the cutoff folded, and Heller called to give Wazwaz a chance at more than a triple while any future action would go into a side pot.
The middle-position player and Heller checked to the river as the board came 
, where Heller was checked to once more before he announced that he was all in. He quickly got a fold and it was time for Heller and Wazwaz to table their hands.
Steve Wazwaz: 
Nathan Heller: 
Heller hit trips by the river and it was more than enough to beat Wazwaz's two unpaired cards. Heller had the pot sent his way. Meanwhile, Wazwaz was getting a massage and kindly asked for the timer to be stopped so he could go reload and get back in on the action. He is now back in the tournament area and walking to his new seat at this very moment.
