Jason Wheeler Eliminated in 6th Place ($54,900)
Level 30
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Punnat Punsri, in the hunt for his first bracelet, kept the pressure on as he raised to 240,000 under the gun. Michael Lavin then woke up with a hand on the button, and chose a three-bet sizing of 725,000. Jason Wheeler, fresh off of a double up, then ripped his 2,610,000 into the middle, looking to end the hand with four times what he had just moments ago, however he would have to win a flip against Lavin who made the call.
Jason Wheeler: A♠K♠ 
Michael Lavin J♠J♥
Wheeler hit a monumental 7♠10♣3♠ flop, meaning he was now the favourite to take down the pot. That being said, the 7♣7♥ runout gave Lavin a full house, sending Wheeler home with an over $50,000 score.
