Mueller Toasted by Clinkscales

Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Rex Clinkscales was seen scooping in a pot as Cliff Mueller had been eliminated from the tournament. According to Clinkscales, he opened to 5,000 from early position and received calls from Cliff Mueller in middle position, Dapo Fadeyi in the hijack, and Joel Verbeck on the button.
The flop came rainbow and action checked to Mueller, who shoved for 18,800. While Fadeyi was thinking, Verbeck called out of turn. Fadeyi folded and then Clinkscales called.
Clinkscales and Verbeck checked down the turn and river, which brought blanks.
Clinkscales tabled for a pair of aces while Mueller had
for a pair of jacks and Verbeck's hand was not tabled despite the all-in situation.
