Van Driessche Doubles Through Reard
Niveau 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Alexandre Reard was one of the early chipleaders of the day, but things have been going rapidly south after the dinner break for the Frenchman. Just moments ago he doubled up Clement van Driessche and slipped below the 100,000 mark for the first time since level 2.
On the 
flop, Van Driessche bet 6,000 and Sebastian Compte called. Reard check-raised to 23,000, Van Driessche shoved for 26,600, Compte folded and Reard called the few extra chips.
Clement van Driessche: 
Alexandre Reard: 
Van Driessche's kicker held up after the 
turn and 
river, giving him a much-needed double-up.
