Reard Goes Runner-Runner to Chop with Mattsson
Nivel 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Satish Sanan opened from early position and Alexandre Reard three-bet the cutoff to 16,000. Simon Mattsson then shoved for just under 50,000 from the small blind. Sanan folded, and Reard called.
Simon Mattsson: K♥K♦ 
Alexandre Reard: K♣Q♥
Mattsson was a huge favorite to double up and it looked almost certain he would after the 8♠6♦4♣ flop. The 5♥ turn did bring around some chop outs, and the 7♥ river was one of them as there was a straight on board, which meant they chopped the pot.
