Dimov Shows Monster; Wheeler Wins With Top pair
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Raul Mestre made it 90,000 to go in the cutoff. Ognyan Dimov and Samuel Ju called in the blinds, after which the trio checked the A♠J♦K♣ flop and the J♥ turn.
Dimov then bet 105,000 on the 5♣ river. Ju quickly folded, after which Mestre instantly tossed in a calling chip. Dimov tabled K♥J♣ for a full house, and Mestre's cards swiftly hit the muck.
Over at the other outer table, Jason Wheeler had defended his big blind against hijack Rodrigo Selouan's open-raise. Wheeler went on to check-call Selouan's bets of 80,000 on the J♥9♣A♣ flop and 230,000 on the 9♠ turn.
The players checked the 2♣ river to showdown, where Wheeler revealed A♦6♥ for top pair, winning him the pot.
