Wheeler Stays Alive; Abou Risk Crushing

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante

A player in early position raised, Nick Abou Risk called from late position, Brent Wheeler called all-in, and the player in the small blind called as well.

The dealer laid out a flop reading {7-Clubs}{5-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. The player in the small blind checked, the early position raiser bet, Abou Risk raised, and the player in the big blind and the early position raiser made the call.

The {8-Clubs} hit on the turn and all three players checke to the {7-Diamonds} on the river. All three players checked again, Abou Risk turned over {a-Spades}{10-Spades} to claim the side pot, and Wheeler tabled {6-}{4-} for a turned straight and took down the main pot to stay alive.
