Ross Squeaks Out a Double With a Wheel

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 100 ante

A player completed showing a {6-Hearts} after Mike Ross brought in with the {4-Clubs}. Ross raised over the top to get it all in and the other player called. There boards ran out as follows.

Mike Ross: {2-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}/{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades}{A-Spades}
Opponent: {3-Spades}{6-Clubs}/{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

Ross' opponent showed seventh first, showing the {K-Spades} meaning that Ross would somehow have to beat two pair in order to survive. And Ross peeled his final card.

"How about a wheel!" Ross said, showing his {3-Clubs}. That gave him a straight and a low and allowed him to take down the pot to fully double.

"I'm glad I didn't complete," Ron Ware said after the hand, laughing.
