Alexandre Reard Eliminated in 2nd Place ($1,791,267)
Level 29
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Khoi Le Nguyen raised from the button, and Alexandre Reard called all in for 1,100,000.
Alexandre Reard: 8♦5♠
Khoi Le Nguyen: Q♥3♠
Reard was behind the queen-high of Nguyen but held live cards. The 9♥7♣4♦ gave Reard a gutshot and the 10♦ turn improved him to an open-ender. However, the 4♠ bricked off on the river as queen-high held for Nguyen who eliminated Reard to take down the title.
