A Selection of Big Stacks

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Jason Wheeler has been slowly but surely building a monster stack in the corner of the tournament room, and the biggest pot was a three-bet hand where the American poker pro flopped top pair with {J-Spades}{9-Spades} on {9-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Wheeler called a continuation bet and spiked the {9-Clubs} turn to improve to trips. His opponent jammed with aces and there was no two-outer on the river.

Below are further assorted big stacks.
