Tindle Runs Into Pinson's Set; Wiggins Takes From Shields
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Alexander Wiggins raised to 5,500 in the hijack, Tyler Shields three-bet to 12,000 in the cutoff, and Wiggins called.
The flop came 10♣6♣8♥ and Shields bet 15,000. Wiggins called to the K♥ turn, where Shields bet another 25,000. Wiggins again called.
Both players checked down the K♦ river, and Wiggins showed Q♦10♦ for two pair to win the pot.
At another table, Steve Tindle bet 12,000 from the hijack on a board of 10♣J♥8♠2♥ and Aaron Pinson moved all in from middle position. Tindle took several minutes before calling for his last 40,000.
He showed 9♦8♦, but Pinson had 8♥8♣ for a set. Tindle needed to complete a straight draw to stay alive, but he missed the K♦ river.
"Good luck. I enjoyed it," Tindle told his tablemates on his way to the rail.
