Wheeler's Ace Hits on the River to Bust Opponent
Level 15
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action folded to the cutoff who moved all in with 120,000 behind. After the button and small blind got out the way, Howard Wheeler wasted no time making the call from the big blind, and the players tabled their hands.
Wheeler: 
Opponent: 
Wheeler was ahead for now, but quickly fell behind when the flop came 
, giving his opponent two pair. The 
turn changed nothing, but the 
on the river gave Wheeler the higher two pair, and the pot, knocking out his opponent in the process.
