: 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Robert Reed opened from early position before Rhett Vanleeuwen re-raised to 3,750,000, leaving only 50,000 behind. Reed jammed in response to put Vanleeuwen all-in. Vanleeuwen flicked his final 50,000 in the middle to go to a showdown and be at risk.
Rhett Vanleeuwen: A♠K♣
Robert Reed: A♥J♠

The turn was bad news for Vanleeuwen when the J♥ came to pull Reed into the lead.
The 6♥ river was the final card Vanleeuwen would see in the tournament.
