Heiko twice takes a hit, exits in 5th

Heiko claimed his first PPT cash

After a barren spell punctuated by double ups for the short stacks, Heiko Kenning was the surprise departure after losing two pots in quick succession.

The first was against Nat Jarmonthavat, who having doubled up seems to have confidence renewed, and a short while later it all went in pre-flop against Milan Simko.

The Czech held JJ to crush Kenning's pocket fives, with the 6♠2♠2♥-K♣-4♥ board barely raising a pulse.

PPT regular Heiko collects his first cash on the tour, worth a cool €9,184. 

Prize Pool reminder: 1st - €33,005; 2nd - €20,090; 3rd - €13,346; 4th - €10,906.
