Wheeler Spikes Ace on River; Doubles Through Golbuff

No-Limit Hold'em

Action folded over to Samuel Golbuff on the button, who min-raised to 16,000. Directly behind him, Brent Wheeler moved all-in for his last 178,000 from the small blind. Chris Tryba folded the big blind and Golbuff tanked, but eventually announced, "Call," to put Wheeler at risk.

Wheeler: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Golfbuff: {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

The first four cards ran out {3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{J-Spades} and Wheeler got up from his seat as if he were ready to leave. However, the {A-Diamonds} fell on the river, giving Wheeler a pair of aces on the river for the double up.

Wheeler is up to 360,000 following the hand while Golbuff has slipped to 350,000
