Terrance Reid

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Istvan Pilhofer opened to 65,000 from early position. On the button, Javier Gomez Zapatero three-bet to 190,000. In the big-blind, Fabrice Bigot found a four-bet to 450,000.

Pilhofer folded his hand, and Zapatero thought about it for about 30 seconds. Eventually, he did fold, despite holding the dominating queen.
