Massive Pot Goes Reilly's Way; He Claims the Chip Lead

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

They say that in order to win poker tournaments you have to win your coinflips, and that is exactly what Timothy Reilly has just done.

A raise on the button from Alexandre Reard was met with a three-bet from Reilly and before we knew what was going on Reard had moved all-in and Reilly had called!

Reilly: {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}
Reard: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Reilly flew into the lead on the {4-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop and when the turn and river were the {10-Hearts} and {10-Diamonds} respectively, Reilly claimed the chip lead and left Reard nursing a 740,000 stack. Reard still has over 30 big blinds so is anything but short stacked, but this hand really changes the dynamic of the tournament.
