Lingham Flops a Wheel on First Hand

Level 1 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Vinny Lingham
Vinny Lingham

Vinny Lingham opened to 4,500 and was called by Brandon Wilson in the big blind.

Wilson check-called a 3,000 bet from Lingham on the 23A flop and then both players checked on the 6 turn.

The K completed the board and Wilson checked again, prompting an 11,000 bet from Lingham.

Wilson didn't take long to call and Lingham tabled 54 for a wheel. Wilson sent his cards into the muck and Lingham was sent the pot.

"Tricky tricky!" Adrien Mateos said from across the table.
