Stand Up Trick Pays Off for Roussey at Wheeler's Expense
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
The short-stacked Quentin Roussey opened to 900 from the button before Jason Wheeler three-bet to 2,400 from the small blind. Roussey called.
On the 
flop, Wheeler continued for 1,600 and called after Roussey moved all in for 9,100.
Quentin Roussey: 
Jason Wheeler: 
Roussey had flopped top pair but was behind Wheeler's pocket aces. The Frenchman immediately stood out of his seat and started putting on his coat while collecting his belongings.
The 
turn kept Wheeler ahead but Roussey rivered two pair after the 
completed the board. He was unaware that he had the best hand until his tablemates pointed out that he had the winner.
