Jason Wheeler
Jason Wheeler

Jason Wheeler's seat was occupied by another player and his former table mates briefly recapped the action.

On an ace-high board with two clubs on it, Jason wheeler got in the remainder of his chips with {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} versus {a-}{k-}. He didn't improve as the board ran out and he was eliminated from the tournament.

At a separate table Steve Wilkie was seen getting out of his seat with no chips in front of him. His {q-}{q-} was cracked by {8-Spades}{7-Spades}. Since Wilkie has already rebought today, he will have to re-enter tomorrow.
