Wheely Good Start to the Tournament
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 200 ante
Alex Epstein opened to 300 from under the gun and Mike Thibodeaux called in the small blind.
Both players drew one card. Thibodeaux led for 600, Epstein raised to 1,500, and Thibodeaux made it 3,000 to go.
Epstein snapped it off and got the bad news immediately as Thibodeaux had made a wheel against Epstein's eight-seven to drag a large pot early in the day.
"That's a wheel-y good start to the tournament," remarked tablemate Clint Wolcyn.
