Thome Catches Wheeler Making a Move
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Heads-up on a board of 2?4?9?8?, Julien Thome bet 2,700 from the big blind and Jason Wheeler called in the hijack.
The river was the J? and Thome checked to Wheeler who bet 5,000. Thome quickly called and Wheeler instantly mucked his hand, allowing Thome to win the pot without a showdown.
Despite dropping that pot, Wheeler has doubled his stack so far on Day 1a.
