Reard Eliminates Lewis
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Alexandre Reard opened from the hijack, and Romain Lewis defended from the big blind.
The flop came Q♦K♣7♦ and Lewis check-called an 8,000 continuation bet from Reard.
Reard fired a second barrel for 16,000 when checked to on the 8♠ turn. Lewis shoved for a bit more than 50,000, and Reard called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Romain Lewis: K♥2♥ 
Alexandre Reard: K♠J♠
Both players had top pair, but Reard was ahead with the better kicker. The 9♥ river confirmed Lewis' elimination while Reard took the pot.
