Reyes Holds and Rodgers Hits the Rail

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Praise Ogwo raised in early position to 33,000. Todd Rodgers reraised to 100,000 from the hijack. Eric Reyes was on the button and four-bet to 275,000. Ogwo folded and Rodgers put in his total remaining stack of 264,000.

Rodgers: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Reyes: {a-}{k-}

The board ran out {10-}{9-}{4-}{4-}{5-} and Reyes held on with his kicker to chip up nicely.

Rodgers has been a very vocal and positive player in all the events he has been in this year. We had a quick minute to speak with him after his elimination and he would encourage anyone affected by breast cancer, family members, friends, etc. to check out this page to sign up for a charity poker tournament in which the funds go toward SendMeOnVacation.org — a charitable organisation giving cancer survivors and battlers free vacations following treatment with no strings attached.
