Reard Pulling Away
Level 27
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Alexandre Reard limped in the small blind, prompting Khoi Le Nguyen to raise to 1,750,000. Reard called, and the two went to a flop.
The dealer fanned out a 9♦K♣9♠ flop, and Reard check-called a bet of 1,000,000.
The action was short and sweet from that point, as the players checked down on the A♣ turn and the 2♥ river.
Reard turned over 5♠5♥, which was enought to claim the pot, as Nguyen mucked his cards.
