Alex Wheeler Eliminated on the Bubble

Alex Wheeler was down to his last 8,000 and committed it in the hijack. Four other players 18,000 each, giving him a chance at more than quintupling his stack with a side pot already in the makings for the four remaining players.

Tyler Potts bet 35,000 on the flop under the gun, with Jay Teel calling in cutoff. David Blankenship also announced a call on the button and all three players checked the turn , bringing the river where Potts bet another 35,000 and received a fold from Teel and a call from Blankenship.
