Link Eliminates Wilkerson on the Bubble
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Chad Link opened to 12,000 from under the gun and was called by the player on his left. Brad Wilkerson then shoved all in for 91,000 in the hijack. Link asked for a count and then called, forcing out the player on his left.
Brad Wilkerson: A♣8♦
Chad Link: A♦J♣
Link was in a dominating position and the flop of K♠7♠5♠ kept it that way with neither player holding a spade. The 9♣ on the turn gave Wilkerson a straight draw but the 2♣ on the river bricked out. Wilkerson was eliminated and the remaining 23 players will now bag their chips for Day 2.
A full list of chip counts and a recap of the day's action will be posted shortly.
