Ruijs Runs Into Reid's Rockets
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Under the gun, Joris Ruijs opened the action with a raise to 10,000. Terrance Reid was in middle position and three-bet to 28,000, after which the action folded back to Ruijs.
The Dutchman took another look at his cards before committing his 140,000 chips to the middle, being snapped off by Reid.
Joris Ruijs: A♥K♥ 
Terrance Reid: A♠A♦
It was looking grim for Ruijs, although the 3♠9♣3♥6♥ turn brought him some hope. The 8♣ river did not complete his flush draw, however, and Ruijs was forced to leave the tournament area early on Day 2.
