Brian Reinert

Brian Reinert flew in yesterday after following Thursday’s Flight A action from his home in the Atlanta area. Flight C got off to a tough start for him when he held AhQh on a KxJxTx flop. There was a round of betting with a lone opponent and they saw another Kx fall on the turn. They got their stacks all in, Reinert at risk.

Reinert: AhQh for Broadway
Opponent: Kx3x for trip kings

Reinert was in great shape to scoop a huge pot early, but the river peeled a 3x. Reinert’s opponent improved to a fullhouse and Reinert hit the rail in Level 1.

After cooling off a bit, he re-entered and is back in the game in Level 2. He recently hit quad threes and got a full double through kings. With that, he sits with about 60,000 chips.
