Three-time MSPT Champ Nick Barksdale opened under the gun for 9,000, and MSPT Hall of Famer Keith Heine called from the small blind before the big blind squeezed their remaining 17,000 stack into the middle.

With action back on Barksdale, he moved out a 50,000 four-bet, putting Heine to the test, and after some careful thought, Heine called off his 30,000 stack.

The then paired the board on the turn, keeping Barksdale in the lead, while the river secured him the double knockout.
