Wiksten Runs Into Aces
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Epsen Moen opened to 4,500 in early position and Matthew Ireland three-bet to 12,000 from the cutoff. Uuso Wiksten four-bet shoved all in for around 70,000 in the big blind which got Moen to fold. Ireland, however, quickly called and the cards were tabled.
Matthew Ireland: 
Uuso Wiksten: 
Not only did Ireland have the larger of the two pocket pairs, but he also had both of the suits covered. That would be important as the board ran out 
and Ireland held the nut flush to eliminate Wiksten.
