Joe Bob Locke (pictured, right) limped from middle position, Charles Gomez raised to 16,000 from the next seat over and Harry Thomas Jr. called from the big blind. Locke reraised all  in for 38,000, Gomez reraised to about 90,000 and Thomas Jr. called all in for 75,500.

Locke: KsKcJc3s
Gomez: AcAh10h3c
Thomas Jr.: 6d5s4d3h

The flop came down AsQc10c, giving Locke the lead in the main pot with an ace-high straight. Gomez led in the side pot with a set of aces and was looking for the board to pair.

Instead, the 2s turn and 5d river completed the board.

Locke’s ace-high straight held up for the main pot, while Thomas Jr. made a wheel on the river to win the side pot to survive as well.

Joe Bob Locke – 116,000
Harry Thomas Jr. – 75,000
Charles Gomez – 70,000
