Palihapitiya Takes One from Wheeler
With around 15,000 in the pot and a flop of 
, Chamath Palihapitiya checked from the small blind and Dmitry Kataev did the same from the big. Jason Wheeler took the opportunity to bet 7,000, which only Palihapitiya called.
Both players then checked the 
turn before Palihapitiya bet 13,000 on the 
river. Wheeler gave it about 30 seconds worth of thought before tossing his hand to the muck.
For those who don't know Palihapitiya, he was a part of Facebook's original executive team, but retired in 2011 after serving as Vice President of Facebook's Growth, Mobile & International divisions. In last year's Main Event, Palihapitiya went deep and finished in 101st place, good for $54,851.
Palihapitiya, who is decked out in One Drop gear, is slated to play the upcoming $1-million buy-in BIG ONE for ONE DROP on Sunday.

flop and 
turn, however, when the 
landed on the river, Hall led out for 10,500. Voyer quickly called and Hall tabled 
turn and the 
river ensure Borrero would double up to around 65,000. Cloutier's stack is still very healthy as he sits as one of the chip leaders.
