Knockout For Wolfson

A player in late position potted preflop and made it 10,800 with only a few thousand more behind. Matt Wolfson thought about it then re-potted all in and got a call.

Wolfson: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The board ran out {j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} and Wolfson's twos full of jacks won him the pot and moved him up to 35,000. We are nearing the end of the day here and play has slowed down for the most part as people try and guarantee themselves a spot in Day 2.
