Willis Cracks Wheeler's Aces and Triples Up
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Yuebin Guo raised and Daniel Willis called before Jason Wheeler decided to three-bet. Guo tanked before shoving, and Willis called all in with a total short stack worth 254,000, followed by Wheeler, who was also at risk for 518,000:
Daniel Willis: K♥K♣8♦4♥ 
Jason Wheeler: A♠A♦9♦2♠
Yuebin Guo: K♠K♦9♥6♦
Wheeler seemed in great shape to scoop the pot with aces, but the board showed 10♥8♥6♥Q♣3♣ to give the flush to Willis to triple his stack. Wheeler's aces were good to take the side pot, and Guo's stack took a big hit.
