Givens Busts to Reichard in Crazy Pot

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Josh Reichard

We found Josh Reichard with 3,150 in front of him in the small blind, facing two all-in wagers. One was from Will Givens, who has about 20,000 in middle position, while the player on the button was all in for about 12,000. Reichard made the call.

Reichard: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Givens: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Button: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

"Nice call, I thought you had ace-queen," Givens said to Reichard.

The most live cards were held by the player on the button though, and he was the one to improve on the {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Spades} flop. A {6-Hearts} turn was a blank, and a {q-Diamonds} river sealed it for the player on the button.

Apparently, the action had begun with a player who opened to 650 in early position and was called by Givens. The player on the button then put out 1,050, trying to get change, but the bet was ruled a raise. Reichard cold four-bet to the 3,150 we saw, folding out the opener, and Givens jammed it in. The player on the button, not noticing the all in, announced a call, and was forced to call off his stack.

"I couldn't have played that any worse at any time," he said after the hand.

Reichard collected a small side pot from Givens, while the player on the button tripled.
