Perfect River Card Propels Wilbur to Big Double

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

We're not sure how the preflop action played out, but we do know three players each put in a hefty 11,000 to see the flop, which came down {3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades}. Michael Gill checked, Adam Wilbur moved all in, and Nicholas Trimble folded. Gill snap-called and Wilbur discovered the bad news.

Wilbur: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Gill: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}

Wilbur made a move at the pot with a mere gutshot, and Gill snapped him off with a set. The {7-Spades} turn was of no consequence, but the {10-Hearts} river was as Wilbur spiked the perfect card to more than double through a disappointed Gill.
