Reels Loses a Small One Then Wins a Big One

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

In the first hand Jason Reels raised it to 125,000 and Ralph Perry moved all in. With action back on Reels he asked for an exact count. The dealer confirmed 780,000 total, which sent Reels into the tank for over a minute before he flashed the {a-Hearts} and folded.

Two hands later the under-the-gun player raised it to 125,000 and Ralph Perry again three-bet shoved all in. Action folded around to Reels in the big blind, he four-bet shoved for less and the original raiser folded.

Ralph Perry: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Jason Reels: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

The {j-Spades}{4-Spades}{q-Diamonds} was an action flop for both players, with Perry flopping top set and Reels flopping the nutflush draw. The {k-Clubs} turn gave Reels additional outs to the Broadway straight and the {10-Clubs} was one of those outs, which sent the huge pot to Reels and left Perry with just 250,000.
