Wade on His Way

Action folded around to Tristan Wade in the cutoff and he raised to 325, which was immediately three-bet to 850 from the player on the button. Both blinds got out of the way, Wade four-bet 2,200, and the button moved all in for right around 8,500. Wade made the call and it was off to the races.

Showdown
Wade: {A-}{K-}
Button: {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Wade was behind and needed to improve, which he did on the {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. The {K-Spades} turn improved the South Floridian to trips, while the harmless {5-Hearts} river allowed him to knock out his opponent and chip up to 16,500.
