A Wheel on the Turn for Nick Jivkov

Level 5 : 150/300, 50 ante

Nick Jivkov was one of five players to see the {9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop after Mario Prats raised to 600 preflop.

A player bet 1,200 on the flop and Jivkov was one of two callers. The turn was the {3-Spades} and the same player bet again, making it 1,800. Jivkov raised to 4,800 and the player went all in. Jivkov called and showed a wheel with {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} against the overpair, {10-}{10-}, of his opponent.

The river was irrelevant and Jivkov doubled up and collected the remainder of the pot.
