The largest pot of the tournament just went down. It was a monster.
Pavel Shirshikov opened to 13,000 from under-the-gun. Jason Wheeler three-bet to 46,000 on the button. Shirshikov four-bet to 118,000 and Wheeler went into the tank. Eventually making the call. The flop came 
, and Shirshikov continued with a bet of 65,000. Wheeler called.
The 
fell on the turn and things escalated quickly. Shirshikov fired out again, this time for 140,000. Wheeler took just a moment before raising all-in. Shirshikov snap-called.

Shirshikov had flopped a set of jacks, leaving Wheeler drawing dead. The inconsequential 
completed the board on the river and Wheeler exited the tournament floor in 33rd place, good for RUB 885,000 (approx. USD$ 15,659)
