Joe Wilson Eliminated in 7th Place ($3,870)

Joe Wilson
Joe Wilson

John McDonald opened for 140,000 under the gun, then Joe Wilson, in the small blind, three-bet for 320,000. McDonald called, and they saw a flop of 6♦7♥6♥. Wilson led out for 320,000 and got called.

On the 10♣ turn, Wilson fired 435,000 and was again called. The river brought the K♥, and Wilson took a moment, then sent 800,000 into the pot. McDonald announced "all in", having Wilson covered. Wilson called, showing A♥K♠ for kings-up. McDonald produced 7♦7♣ for the full house to take the pot.

Wilson hit the rail, earning $3,870. He earned his way into this event via a BetMGM $5 satellite, so that's a nice return on his investment. He flew in from Michigan, along with his family, to play this final table.
