Wakeman Lightens the Field
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Trung Nguyen opened to 25,000 from the hijack and was called by the player in the cutoff. Matthew Wakeman then announced a squeeze to 110,000 from the small blind, which got a fold from Nguyen, but a shove from the cutoff for about 300,000. Wakeman snap-called and hands were revealed.
Cutoff: A♥10♥
Matthew Wakeman: J♠J♣
The board ran out 8♦J♦10♣6♥Q♣ — keeping Wakeman's jacks best for the knockout.
