Rast is Good on Turn

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

We caught up with Brian Rast in the small blind, who faced a 400 opening bet from a player in middle position. Rast re-raised to 1,100, and the big blind went all-in for less (about 600). The player in middle position called.

Flop:{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Rast bet out 800, and his opponent called. The turn brought the {a-Clubs}, and Rast made a 3/4 pot bet to 1,750. Both of his opponents mucked. As the short-stacked opponent made a rushed exit, the river came an insignificant {2-Diamonds}.

Rast showed the {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, giving him top 2-pair with a 13 out re-draw to a full house and flush, picking up a pot of around 3,000 and bringing his stack up to around 14,000.
