Jason Wheeler Eliminated in 17th Place ($35,003)

Kyle Julius opened for 42,000 under the gun and was met with an all-in three-bet by Jason Wheeler in middle position. Action folded back around to Julius and he made the call.

Showdown
Julius: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Wheeler: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}

Wheeler was in a bad spot as he'd run his mid-pocket pair into Julius' cowboys. The {4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop provided no help to Wheeler, and neither did the {10-Diamonds} turn. In order to survive, Wheeler needed a seven on the river, but this is an elimination post so of course it didn't spike. Instead, the {8-Diamonds} appeared and Wheeler exited in 17th place.
