After an initial 2,500 raise, there were five players who took to a flop, which included MSPT Champ Curtis Vierstraete from the hijack, and Brett “Pops” Reichard from the button.

Action was checked to Vierstraete, who fired out a 4,000 bet, and he found two callers, which included Reichard.

Once the hit the turn, action was again checked to Vierstraete, who upped his bet to 8,000, and only Reichard called to see the complete the board on the river.

A final 11,000 bet was then tossed into the middle from Vierstraete, and he was met with an all-in raise from Reichard.

Vierstraete then quickly released his hand into the muck, and Reichard tabled before collecting the pot.

Brett “Pops” Reichard - 60,000
Curtis Vierstraete - 23,400
