Michael Reed

Michael Reed just won a 140,000-chip pot after it was capped three ways preflop.

The flop was {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and Benjamin Ashkar bet. Reed called, and the third opponent folded. Reed and Ashkar were heads up to the {8-Spades} on the turn. Ashkar bet again, Reed raised, and Ashkar three-bet. Reed called. The river was the {4-Spades} and Ashkar bet again. Reed raised and Ashkar called, turning over a set of queens with {q-}{q-}.

Reed showed {j-}{10-} for a straight and collected the pot.
