Wheeler Spikes the King
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jason Wheeler flicked it in for 69,000 from under the gun and Markku Koplimaa called one seat over after running down his clock. All other players quickly folded to create the following showdown.
Jason Wheeler: 
Markku Koplimaa: 
While the 
flop gave Wheeler the king but also needed to dodge the flush draw on top of the ace. The PokerStars Championship Prague runner-up did so on the 
turn and 
river and collected the chips with a grin.
