A player in early position limped in and Steve Wilkie raised to 4,000 on the button. The small blind called and the early-position player did as well.
The flop came and the small blind led out for 5,000. The early-position player called and then Wilkie jammed for 30,000, receiving a fold from the small blind.
"Let's gamble!" said the early-position player, calling all in for less.
Early Position:
Steve Wilkie:
Wilkie's set was ahead of his opponent's open-ended straight draw and he faded the eight outer as the turn and river
completed the runout.
