William Reynolds: back to the commentary booth
William Reynolds: back to the commentary booth

William Reynolds just lost his "first flip of the tournament," and in dramatic, disappointing style. For him - on the flip side of it was Raemon Sluiter who is now over 1,100,000 in chips. It was a huge preflop pot, with Sluiter having raised 61,000 and big blind Reynolds choosing that moment, after careful deliberation, to move all in. He was called.

Reynolds: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Sluiter: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

While the cameras gathered, someone asked him if he was going to commentate on this hand later.

"I'm gonna let James handle this one on the broadcast. I'm not getting paid to commentate right now," he joked, adding, "The hand played itself...that's all I got."

The board came {3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{10-Spades}{Q-Clubs} prompting a squeal of delight from railer and girlfriend Fatima Moreira de Melo and big count down which left Reynolds with 1,000 over a big blind.

"Comebacks happen," he quipped, getting it in with a live {10-Spades}{J-Hearts} vs. Pedro Javier Piazuelo Ferrero's {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} preflop and losing to a full house: {K-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{K-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. He gets €30,000 reward for his deep run.
