There was a raise to 3,500 under the gun that Roman Mai called in the cutoff before Mike Wheeler re-jammed for 35,500 in the big blind. The original raiser folded, sending action back to Mai, who confirmed the amount and then splashed calling chips into the middle.

Mike Wheeler: {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Roman Mai: {q-Spades}{10-Spades}

The runout {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}{j-Diamonds} left Wheeler's ace kicker best and scored him the double at Mai's expense.
