Last Woman Standing Wheeler Falls To Wong

Level 23 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Amanda Wheeler, a Bellagio Dealer whose husband Leon, Poker Room Manager at the Wynn also cashed this event, jammed for 150,000 from middle position, and Justin Wong called in the big blind.

Amanda Wheeler: {a-Spades}{5-Clubs}
Justin Wong: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

The {5-Spades}{2-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop hit Wheeler, and she looked primed to double after the {3-Hearts} turn. The {q-Spades} river brought Wong a pair of queens, and the last woman standing in the tournament made her exit.
