After getting his aces cracked by Ryan Rivers, Kevin Reyes fell to the same player in a similar bad beat.

It happened when Reyes got his chips in holding the {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} and was in great shape to double against the {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts} of Rivers.

The {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades} flop left Rivers asking for a ten, which was a request he repeated when the {9-Hearts} turn gave him a gutshot straight draw. The dealer obliged and put out the {10-Diamonds} on the river to give Rivers the winning hand.

"That's alright," Reyes said, "I've got my money."

Indeed he did. Thanks to the four-handed deal he'll take home $4,500, but not the trophy.
