Weiland Hero Calls to Leave Ha Short
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 30,000 ante
Carson Wieland raised to 180,000 in the small blind with J♣9♣8♠6♠ and got a call from Thai Ha in the big blind with A♦K♠Q♣6♦.
The 10♥9♠8♦ flop gave Wieland bottom two pair, and he checked it to Ha who held overs and a gutshot.
Ha checked back and the turn brought the 5♠, adding a flush draw to Wieland's holding.
Wieland checked again and now Ha bet 180,000. Wieland called to see the river K♦.
Wieland checked a final time and now with a pair of kings but with a very coordinated board in front of him, Ha bet 550,000.
Wieland thought for a few minutes with his nines and eights, and eventually sniffed out Ha's move, calling to win a sizeable pot which sent Ha's stack under a million for the first time since the start of the day.
