Wheel Him Out

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Jason Wheeler
Jason Wheeler

Jason Wheeler opened for a raise in the cutoff, and Arunas Sapitavicius made it 51,000 on the button. Wheeler shoved all in and got an immediate call. The two were racing:

Sapitavicius: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Wheeler: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Wheeler's eights held strong on the {2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop, but the {a-Clubs} turn sent him packing when he was unable to hit on the {j-Spades} river.
