Wakeman Lightens the Field

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Matthew Wakeman
Matthew Wakeman

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: A10All in
Matthew Wakeman: JJ

The board ran out 8J106Q — keeping Wakeman's jacks best for the knockout.
