Wheeler Moves In
Vasili Firsau from Belarus in the cutoff opened to 1,350, and Jason Wheeler on the button three bet to 3,500. Both blinds folded, Firsau made the call.
Firsau checked to Wheeler on 
and Wheeler bet 3,500. Firsau now raised to 8,900 and Wheeler called in position.
The 
fell on the turn and Firsau bet out 14,850. Wheeler had seen enough and moved all in for 39,075 more. Firsau thought long and hard and seemed not really sure what he wanted. The small blind asked for the clock and after the floor came over, Firsau asked the dealer to pull in the 14,850 from Wheelers allin. The floor started the minute countdown after that was quickly done.
Firsau eventually folded with about 15 seconds left to act. While Wheeler was stacking his newfound chips, Firsau had some angry words for the French player in the small blind for asking the clock while not involved in the hand. The French just shook his head a bit and mumbled; "They don't change", talking about the cards in Firsau's hands seconds before.
