Wagner Gets There

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Dan Wagner
Dan Wagner

Dan Wagner opened to 26,000 and both blinds called, including Joseph Elia in the small.

The {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop checked to Wagner and he continued. Elia raised to 110,000, and after the big blind folded, Wagner three-bet to 300,000. Elia shoved for a couple hundred thousand more and Wagner called off with the monster draw on {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. Elia had top two with the {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}.

The {a-Spades} turn gave Wagner more outs and the {10-Hearts} river made him a flush, giving him 1.7 million in chips, and the big lead, as Elia bowed out 17th.
