Omar Lakhdari opens to 200,000 preflop and Alexandre Reard calls to see a Spade 6Diamond 8Spade 3 flop.

Reard checks and raises over Lakhdari’s 300,000 continuation, making it 900,000 to go. Lakhdari declares his all in an Reard snap-calls.

Alexandre Reard: Club AClub 8

Reard has top pair with top kicker but has to fade spades and eights to stay in the competition.

The turn is an Spade A and though for a moment it seems like it’s all over, Reard can still hit one of three outs for a full house. Sadly for him, the Spade K river doesn’t help him and he will have to console himself with the €64,500 cash for finishing runner up.

Congratulations go to the Frenchman on yet another fantastic WPTDeepStacks result.

Don’t go away just yet as a full recap of the event will be posted here shortly.
