Wilkerson Calls Correctly

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Action picked up on the river with a board reading {a-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{j-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} with 27,500 in the middle between Dylan Wilkerson and another player.

The opponent out-of position led out for 8,000 and Wilkerson went into the tank. After 30-seconds Wilkerson called and the opponent revealed {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades} for king-high, and Wilkerson turned over {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for jacks and fives which was good to take down the pot.

Hellmuth's Stack Arrives

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Phil Hellmuth's stack is in play at table 10 in the blue section, seated with Jonathan Dokler, Dominik Nitsche, and Maria Lampropulos. Hellmuth is still currently in the $10,000 Razz Championship, so it is unclear as to whether he will take his seat.
