Stephen Chidwick Eliminated in 2nd Place ($653,688)
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Alexandre Reard limped on the button and then called after Stephen Chidwick raised to 1,200,000 in the big blind.
Chidwick continued for 1,800,000 on the 8♦5♥2♥ flop and Reard made the call.
The turn came 6♦ and saw Chidwick move all in. Reard snapped it off with the covering stack to put his opponent at risk.
Stephen Chidwick: 8♠3♣
Alexandre Reard: 4♦3♦
Reard had turned a straight with a redraw to the flush to leave Chidwick hoping for an off suit four for a chop. It did not happen with the 2♣ rolling off the deck on the river instead to eliminate Chidwick in second place and crown Reard the champion of Event #90: $10,000 6-Handed No Limit Hold'em Championship.
