Poker.Org's Terrance Reid raised to 120,000 from the hijack and Paul Chai called on the button while Thomas Fragoso called in the big blind.

The flop came out A?Q?8? and action checked to Reid who bet 225,000 which saw both players call.

The turn 4? saw Fragoso move all in for 650,000 which saw Reid move all in for more while Chai folded K?J? face up.

Thomas Fragoso: A?7?
Terrance Reid: A?A?

Reid had the board locked up on the turn as the inconsequential 6? peeled off on the river to give Reid the chip lead while Fragoso exited the tournament.
