Chidwick Doubles Through Rast

Level 5 : 700/1,400, 200 ante

After Brian Rast opened with a raise and Stephen Chidwick three-bet, Rast called to see the flop come down {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}. Rast checked, Chidwick bet 9,000, Rast check-raised to 30,000, and then Chidwick moved all in for around 85,000. Rast called with the {K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, but his flush draw was second best to Chidwick's {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

The {3-Hearts} turn card did give Rast the lead with two pair, but the {8-Spades} river card put Chidwick right back in front to double him up.
