River Floats Wiley Out in 3rd ($265,869)
Dean Hamrick made it 260,000 to go and Ian Wiley moved all in for his last 1,830,000. Hamrick took a few minutes to think it over, then made the call. Their hands:
Wiley: J6
Hamrick: A3
Hamrick made the right call, as his hand was a slight favorite over Wiley’s, but the flop hit Wiley right away, running JQ7 to pair his jack. The 2 came next, and Hamrick was down to one last chance to hit an ace.
Sure enough, the A landed on the river and Hamrick eliminated Wiley in 3rd place. Wiley went to the rail $265,869 richer.
With Wiley gone, Hamrick was heads up with 6.3 million in chips against Thomas O’Neal and his 5 million.
