Level 27
Greg Mueller - 3rd Place
Greg Mueller - 3rd Place

Limit Hold'em

Action folded to Steven Wolansky who raised from the small blind. Greg Mueller called out of the big blind and the flop brought {3-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Wolansky led out and Mueller raised. Wolansky called to see a turn.

The {9-Clubs} hit the turn and Wolansky checked. Mueller led.

"Raise," instantly proclaimed Wolansky.

Mueller, who had less than one big bet behind, called it off.

"You hit the nine, didn't you?" said Mueller. Wolansky nodded and showed {A-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. A frustrated Mueller replied with {10-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a pair of eights.

The {Q-Diamonds} finished off the board and Mueller, last year's runner-up, was eliminated in 3rd place. He will collect $89,673 in tournament winnings.

Malm Gets There

Level 27

Razz

Greg Mueller completed with a four then bet every street to seventh, and Michael Malm called him down after starting with a five. Mueller checked dark on seventh, and Malm checked behind him.

Mueller: {x-}{x-}{x-}/{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Malm: {8-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}/{5-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

"You kept going after you paired that four, huh?" Mueller said, shaking his head in disgust before flipping his cards high into the air toward the muck.
