Zoller Pushes Wilkie Out of Pot

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 60,000 ante

Nate Zoller completed his option and saw Steve Wilkie raise to 420,000 from the big blind. Zoller called and the flop came {q-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs}.

Wilkie continued, firing 250,000 into the middle and Zoller shoved over the top of him.

Wilkie thought for about 30 seconds before asking to have the quarter-million pulled in to count the remainder he needed to call. He then found out he would need to call 1.76 million more if he wanted to have a shot at knocking out Zoller and winning the tournament.

After about 90 seconds more, he looked back at his cards. He then thought for another 90 seconds before folding {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} face-up.

Zoller returned the favor, showing {10-Spades}{9-Spades} for an open-ended straight flush draw as the dealer sent him the pot.
