It Would Have Been a Race

Jason Gray made it 4,000 to go from under-the-gun and Chino Rheem raised to 12,000 from middle position. Action folded back to Gray, who reraised to 42,000 and Rheem fell into the tank.

After awhile, Rheem prepared to fold and Gray offered to show his hand if Rheem would do the same. Rheem agreed and turned over {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} while Gray showed {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} before taking the pot.

Gray has 125,000 while Rheem has 70,000.
