Brent Wheeler Eliminated in 7th Place ($28,494)

Brent Wheeler - 7th Place
Brent Wheeler - 7th Place

No-Limit Hold'em

From early position, Samuel Golbuff raised to 25,000 and then Brent Wheeler tank-shoved from the hijack seat for 161,000. Action folded back to Golbuff and he requested a count. Golbuff had 155,000 behind, which meant he had Wheeler covered by a little bit. Eventually, Golbuff called.

Wheeler held the {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds} and was in dominating shape to double up with the {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs} for Golbuff.

The flop and turn kept Wheeler in front with the {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} falling, but the {Q-Spades} on the river smacked Golbuff with the winner and sent Wheeler to the rail.
