Wolpert Wipes Out Warne

A raise and three callers meant a pot of about 18,000 and four players to see a flop come {7-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Shane Warne checked from the blinds, the two middle position players checked, and Leo Wolpert bet 12,300 from the cutoff seat. Wolpert, incidentally, is another of those participating in the Onnit Last Sticker Standing Challenge, the winner of which will earn $5,000 for being the last player wearing an Onnit sticker standing in the Main Event.

The former Australian cricketer looked at Wolpert's bet, then Warne raised to 30,000, chasing the two other players. Wolpert sat quietly for a moment, then said he was all in and Warne immediately called with the 120,000 or so he had left.

Warne: {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}
Wolpert: {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

Warne had top pair and the nut flush draw, while Wolpert had a set of jacks. The turn was the {10-Diamonds} and river the {6-Spades}, and Warne is out.
