River Saves Reyes
Level 5
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Action was picked up on the flop in a three-bet pot between Jose Reyes and Aftab Patni.
With the board reading 10♦7♣2♦, Reyes checked to Patni who bet 3,000 before Reyes check-raised to 8,600, and Patni called.
Reyes continued for 6,500 on the 9♣ turn before Patni jammed for 17,500 effective as the covering stack, and Reyes called it off.
Jose Reyes: A♣5♣ 
Aftab Patni: Q♠Q♦
Reyes had a flush draw and one over against the overpair of Patni who was a 3-1 favorite to hold. However, the dealer peeled the A♦ on the river as Reyes got there the hard way to scoop a massive pot.
