Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Josh Reichard raised to 125,000 from the hijack, and Michael Wilklow called on the button with 5♦4♦. Simon Wilson squeezed to 450,000 from the small blind, and Reichard four-bet to 825,000. Wilklow got out of the way before Wilson ripped it in for 1,550,000. Reichard made the call to try and bust Wilson.
Simon Wilson: A♥A♣
Josh Reichard: 6♥6♣
Wilson was in a great spot to double up and join the big stacks if his pocket aces could hold.
The J♦5♠10♥ flop kept Wilson's aces in front, but the brutal 6♠ on the turn catapulted Reichard into the lead with a set.
Wilson was already out of his chair with his backpack on as the 5♥ completed the board, sending him to the rail in 12th place.
