Wheeler Puts Dent in Van Rooij's Towers
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
In a three-bet pot worth around 17,000, Merijn van Rooij checked from under the gun to Jason Wheeler on the button. Wheeler placed a continuation-bet of 4,500 on the K♥K♣6♣ flop, which Van Rooij called swiftly.
Both players knuckled the table on the J♣ turn, and did so too when the A♥ emerged from the deck on the river.
Van Rooij flung open his 9♠9♣, but the dealer quickly mucked them as Wheeler had won the pot with A♣J♦.
