Michalak Rivers a Wheel
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jakub Michalak opened to 12,000 in middle position and Oliver Bithell three-bet to 40,000 in the small blind. Michalak responded with a four-bet jam worth 162,000 and Bithell gave it some thought before calling with a bigger stack.
Jakub Michalak: 
Oliver Bithell: 
Bithell's tens were still ahead after the 
flop and on the 
turn, which gave Michalak a straight draw to go with his overcards. The river then brought the 
to give him a wheel and he secured the double through a disappointed-looking Bithell.
