Wasicka Wins

Wasicka - moving on to the Round of 32
Wasicka - moving on to the Round of 32
Online qualifier Andrew Wilson played very well to get this far. Unfortunately, he drew former second-place finisher Paul Wasicka in the first round and couldn't find a way to advance.

Wilson raised to start the hand and Wasicka re-raised all in. Wilson called with {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs} and was only a slight dog to Wasicka's {A-Diamonds}{3-Spades}. The flop was no help to Wilson, coming {9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{6-Spades}. The {9-Clubs} on the turn and {10-Spades} on the river also failed to help Wilson who quietly left the room while Wasicka got a congratulatory hug from his sister.
