Tammel Doubles via Wheeler
Niveau 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Around 8,000 was in the middle on a flop of J♠9♦7♦, in a hand between Tarmo Tammel in the cutoff and Jason Wheeler in the small blind.
Tammel fired out a bet of 5,000, only to be faced with a check-raise to 12,500 from Wheeler. Tammel thought it through for a bit before moving the rest of his stack, totaling 20,500 into the middle. Wheeler made the quick call with the slightly covering stack.
Tarmo Tammel: Q♥Q♣ 
Jason Wheeler: A♦8♦
Tammel was ahead with pocket queens versus Wheeler's nut flush draw, and when he saw his opponent's cards, Tammel quipped "That's what I was hoping you had!".
The turn brought the Q♠ to improve Tammel to top set, and the 5♣ river was not the diamond Wheeler required.
