Joel Wertheimer Eliminated in 2nd Place ($141,298)
Level 38
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Joel Wertheimer shoved for 7,425,000 from the button and Gabriel Schroeder snap-called.
Joel Wertheimer: K?7?
Gabriel Schroeder: A?5?
The flop came Q?2?8? to keep Schroeder ahead with ace high.
The 10? on the turn didn't change things, and neither did the 6? on the river. Wertheimer busted as the runner-up for a payday of $141,298. Schroeder won his first bracelet and $228,632 plus several bounties.
Schroeder ran to his rail and started tearing up while holding several papers which looked like a letter and some photos.
A recap of today's action is to follow.
