Wheeler Chips Up Against Leader
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
The short-stacked Jason Wheeler raised to 100,000 under the gun. Bernhard Binder was next to act and placed a small three-bet to 215,000, seeing Wheeler toss in a call.
Wheeler check-called Binder's continuation-bet of 55,000 on the Q♠A♣J♣ flop, after which the 9♣ was checked by both players.
Wheeler bet 375,000 on the 8♥ river, which was more than half his stack. Binder quickly mucked, and Wheeler's stack moved back above the seven-figure mark.
