More than 12,000 was in the middle with three-handed action on a completed board of {2-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. Thomas Fuller checked in the big blind and Andrew Miller followed suit under the gun, putting action onto Mike Wheeler in the cutoff, who fired out a bet.

"Eighty-one (hundred)?" asked Fuller upon seeing the chips hit the felt. The dealer confirmed and Fuller tossed in chips to match with Miller wasting no time folding behind to take the hand to showdown.

"I have the nuts," announced Wheeler as he tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}. Fuller mucked.

"You and your flushed," said Miller as Wheeler took down the pot, bringing him to nearly 49,000 in the closing minutes of Level 2.
