Ten-Million Chip Suckout

Ty Reiman
Ty Reiman
Ty Reiman opened to 140,000, and John Duthie wanted to play for more. He made it 540,000 straight, putting the decision right back on Reiman. After some quick mental gymnastics, Reiman moved all in for 4,880,000, and Duthie almost beat him into the pot with the call. Duthie had Reiman covered by just 55,000 chips as the cards were turned up:

Reiman: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs}
Duthie: {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs}

With a pot of more than 10 million chips up for grabs, the tension began to mount during the minute-long pause before the flop. It was quite a spectacle when the dealer ran the flop: {Q-Spades} {3-Hearts} {6-Clubs}. The crowd gasped in unison as Reiman had somehow pulled a miraculous queen off the deck.

The turn {K-Diamonds} and river {7-Spades} filled out the board, and Reiman will drag the largest pot of the tournament. He's shot himself into the chip lead with over 10 million, while Duthie now has just those 55,000 little chips to work with.
