Drew O’Connell raises to 150,000 on the button and gets called by Alexandre Reard in the big blind to see a flop of Diamond KClub 9Club 8.

Reard leads for 150,000 and gets a call from O’Connell to see the Club 5 hit the turn.

Reard fires another 350,000 which gets another call.

On the Diamond 2 river, Reard unloads the final bullet, moving all in for O’Connell’s last 1,150,000.

O’Connell uses a time bank before making what would be a great call.

Reard tables Spade AClub 10 for just ace-high, while O’Connell shows Heart KHeart 3 for top pair of kings without much of a kicker, but it’s more than enough to secure a double-up in one of the first hands back from dinner break.

Drew O’Connell – 3,750,000 (50 bb)
Alexandre Reard – 5,300,000 (70 bb)
