Ariyanayagam Turns a One-Outer
Sutharsan Ariyanayagam shoved under the gun for 81,000 and Candido Cappiello moved all in himself over the top from the small blind for 145,000. Jason Wheeler looked at his cards in the big blind and called with the covering stack.
Sutharsan Ariyanayagam: J♥J♠ 
Candido Cappiello: K♠K♣
Jason Wheeler Q♠Q♦
Cappiello just had to hold with kings to become one of the biggest stacks in the room. The 9♣2♣3♣ flop was great for Cappiello as he picked up a flush draw, taking away half of his opponent's outs. However, the J♦ came on the turn to put Ariyanayagam in the lead with top set. A clean A♠ fell on the river, which meant Ariyanayagam tripled up, Cappiello ended with a similar amount as how he started the hand, and Wheeler was left with roughly 50,000.
