Allez, Allez, Reard!
Level 27
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Khoi Le Nguyen opened the hijack to 1,000,000 and Alexandre Reard defended his big blind.
On the K♦J♣5♠ flop, Reard check-called a bet of 850,000 from Nguyen.
Reard checked again on the 9♦ turn as Nguyen sized up to 3,000,000, and Reard put in the call once again.
The 3♣ river checked through as Reard tabled J♠9♠ for two pair which was good as Nguyen quickly mucked and Reard collected a big one, much to the delight of the growing French rail.
