Big Wheel McNeil Off to a Hot Start
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
2013 WSOP bracelet winner and co-owner of Big Wheel Burger, located in various cities in BC, Canada, Calen McNeil is off to a hot start in one of his favorite events of the summer. McNeil was heads-up with John Connors on a flop of J♠8♦4♦ where both players committed 2,500 to the pot.
The turn was the 9♣ and Connors checked to McNeil who sized up a bet of 8,500. Connors called and the 10♥ peeled off on the river. Connors checked again and McNeil checked it back, showing A♣Q♠10♣3♦ for a queen-high straight. Connors flashed his J♥J♦ before sending his hand into the muck.
