Defending Champ Among the Leaders

Level 4 : 150/300, 0 ante

The defending champ, Brent Wheeler, picked up a decent sized pot on the last hand before the break.

Wheeler raised preflop and both of the players in blinds called. The flop came {q-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{k-Hearts}, both of the blinds checked, Wheeler bet, the player in the small blind raised, the player in the big blind three-bet, Wheeler maxed out with a four-bet, the small blind folded, and the player in the big blind called putting himself all in.

Wheeler: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Big Blind: {q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Wheeler was ahead with his pair of eights and would eliminate his opponent after the turn and river: {8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}
