Wheeler Takes One

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Jason Wheeler
Jason Wheeler

A player in middle position opened to 8,000, Jason Wheeler three-bet to 26,500 from the button, the big blind called, and the original raiser folded.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and the big blind checked. Wheeler bet 26,000 and the big blind called.

The turn brought the {10-Diamonds} and both players checked.

The {K-Diamonds} fell on the river and they checked again. Wheeler tabled {A-Spades}{K-Spades} for top pair, top kicker, and it was good enough to win the pot.
