Wilkins Jumps to the Top

The last level has gone pretty well for Matthew Wilkins. Wilkins dipped a bit lower than he would have liked at the beginning of the day but since then his chip count has rocketed up.

In a hand against Marc Karam and Jeff Cormier, Wilkins flopped top two with nine-seven and got paid off on the river scooping a huge pot.

Wilkins has been running well during this World Cup of Cards. Wilkins ran deep in the Grand Prix Canada and then followed that up with a runner-up finish in the $1100 50/50 bounty for over $15,000.
