Leo Wolpert

Phil Tom has the button. Leo "Superfluous Man" Wolpert shoved in the small blind for 425,000. Greg Mueller called.

Wolpert: {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{3-Diamonds}

Greg

{K-Clubs}

{2-Spades}

Flop:

{Q-Hearts}

{A-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

Turn:

{5-Diamonds}

River:

{2-Hearts}

!

The miracle 2 avoids the split and sends Wolpert home in third. Mueller is down to Phil Tom by about a million in chips as heads up play begins.
