In the HeadsUp duel fought out between Fonzie1411 and PL_Dodger, both players were on equal standing for most of the game. After the 49th hand, the distribution of chips was pretty much like at the beginning of the game. Fonzie1411`s pile had 1520 chips, and PL_Dodgerīs had 1480.
Things changed in the 50th hand however. Both players had bet 175 chips up to the turn, at which point the community cards 7H-7H-AD-QH were lying on the table. Despite already having a flush with five and two of hearts, PL_Dodger decided to check. Fonzie1411 raised the bet to 300 chips, and his opponent responded by doubling to 600. Fonzie1411 placed his faith in his own flush (formed with king and three of hearts) and proceeded to moved all in. PL_Dodger called and the river was revealed to be 8 of spades.
