After a flop of Heart JClub 10Heart 8, Anton Wigg checks from the hijack, WPT champion Brek Schutten bets 8,000 from the button, and Wigg check-raises to 25,500.

Schutten moves all in for roughly 75,000, and Wigg snap-calls with Spade 9Spade 7 for a flopped jack-high straight.

Schutten turns over Club QClub J for a pair of jacks with outs to a gutshot straight draw to chop the pot, and he needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn card is the Club 5, giving Schutten additional outs to a club flush.

But the river card is the Spade K, and Wigg wins the pot with his jack-high straight to eliminate Schutten from Day 1A.

Anton Wigg  –  276,000  (138 bb)
