No River Wheel Chop for Wheeler

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Jason Wheeler moved all in preflop from the button and Valentin Vornicu called out of the big blind, putting Wheeler at risk.

Wheeler: {k-Spades}{8-Spades}
Vornicu: {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

It was domination nation for Wheeler but when the board ran out {4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, Wheeler picked up some chop outs, needing a five to make a wheel on the board.

Unfortunately, the river was the {6-Spades} and Wheeler was eliminated.
