Reece Lightner

Reece Lightner opened to 45,000 and Bryce McVay three-bet to 160,000. It was back on Lightner who announced “486” while sliding his stack into the middle. There was some confusion as it appeared Lightner held less than 486,000. It was ruled an all-in bet (including the 45,000 already in the middle, Lightner’s total bet was 486,000). McVay called and Lightner was at risk in the most classic of races.

McVay: QsQc
