Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
James Clark opened the hand with a raise to 3,000 from the hijack. Willie Glaspie called from the cutoff, but Shawn Wilcox wanted to play for more and chose to respond with a three-bet to 9,000 from the big blind. Clark shoved for 29,000. Glaspie folded, and Wilcox called. Clark was at risk.
James Clark: J♦J♠
Shawn Wilcox: A♠K♥
It was a classic flip. The flop favored Wilcox when it came 4♠3♠K♣, as he improved to a pair of kings.
The 9♠ turn was of no use to Clark, as Wilcox held the higher spade for the flush draw.
Wilcox secured the elimination on the 8♥ river as Clark hit the rail.
