Wheeler Gets River Value
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Seeing a raise to 5,000 ahead of him, Jason Wheeler called in middle position. Next to act, Jeremie Beneteau three-bet to 17,000. The original raiser folded, but Wheeler called for a second time.
Action checked through on the A♠K♦7♣ flop, prompting Wheeler to take over the betting lead on the 5♥ turn. He put 5,000 into the pot, which Beneteau called.
The 4♠ completed the board, and Wheeler put a more substantial 40,000 into the middle. Beneteau called without much hesitation, but was shown bad news.
Wheeler flipped over 7♥7♦ for a set, and Beneteau mucked his hand.
