After waiting two more hands, Jason Wheeler was just about all in from the big blind with a total stack of 29,000.
Under the gun, Paul Tedeschi raised to 50,000 and his neighbor Jeff Rossiter shoved all in for 365,000. Mark Radoja asked for a count but folded in the end. Action folded to Wheeler and he reluctantly tossed in the last 5,000 he had behind. Tedeschi folded.
Jason Wheeler:
Jeff Rossiter:
Wheeler wasn't even in that bad a shape, but wouldn't get there. No comeback story for Wheeler as the board came .
Jason Wheeler out in 15th place, down to the bubble and hand for hand play has started.

With the 13-player money bubble looming, play has slowed down considerably.
While they are not playing hand-for-hand at this point, the tournament staff is tracking the number of hands played at each table to ensure the pace is more or less the same and that no player is guilty of excessive stalling.
Demetrio Barreca opened to 55,000 and Jason Wheeler three-bet the button, making it 135,000.
Barreca made the call and the two went heads up to a flop. Barreca check-called a 110,000-chip Wheeler bet and the turn came the
. Both players checked, but on the
river, Barreca shoved in.
Wheeler took his time about it, but eventually made the call with two aces. Barreca turned over the and his full house was good.
While Barreca moved into the lead, Wheeler was left with just a single 1,000-denomination chip. He turned that into six 1,000-denomination chips making trip threes the next hand, and a hand after that he moved above the one big blind mark making threes full of queens to crack aces. Wheeler is still short, but he's still in.
