Ralph Takes One from Reele

[user38449]

A recent hand just took place between former tournament chip leader Max Reele and consummate tournament pro Ralph Perry that had onlookers scratching their heads.

On a board showing {9-Hearts}

Max passed the first action to Ralph who led out with a 10,000 bet; Max made the call.

The turn brought the {7-Hearts}

and Max check-called another bet from Ralph, this time worth 20,000.

The last card off the deck was the {2-Spades}

and Reele attempted to take down the pot with a 60,000 bet, but Ralph wasn't having it, as he moved all in for just 12,000 more. Much to the amazement of the rest of the table, Reele tossed his cards into the muck, forfeiting the hand to Perry.

Max dropped to 167,000 in chips with the loss while Perry climbed to just under 200,000 for the day.
