Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Brandon Wilson raised under the gun to 10,000 and Christoph Vogelsang defended out of the big blind.

Both players checked the 5♥8♦9♦ flop to see the A♠ come on the turn. Vogelsang checked again, but Wilson fired out a bet of 18,000 into the middle. Vogelsang called and they headed to the river.

Vogelsang checked the J♦ on the river and Wilson bet 64,000. Vogelsang went deep into the tank, so much so that the clock was called on him. When the count got down to two seconds, he put in the call. Wilson flipped over K♦Q♥ for just king-high. Vogelsang took down the pot with A♦3♠ for a pair of aces.

Player	Chips	Progress
Christoph Vogelsang	305,000 245,000	245,000
Brandon Wilson	200,000 140,000	140,000
