Wilson Wins Irish battle
Level 18
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Robbie Toan raised to 35,000 in the cutoff, which Simon Wilson called on the button. Toan fired 40,000 on the 5♣J♦Q♦ flop and 90,000 on the J♥ turn, both times being called by Wilson.
Both players then quickly checked the 9♦ river. Toan could only show king-high with K♠8♠, which Wilson easily beat with his A♣Q♣ for top pair.
