No Hero Call from Rast this Time

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Lennart Uphoff got a few chips back off Brian Rast after getting the latter to fold on the river.

Uphoff raised from the hijack and Rast called from the big blind to see a {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop where he and Uphoff checked. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and Rast led for 205,000. Call. It seemed as if the turn bet was a stab at winning the pot from Rast as he check-folded to a 450,000 bet on the {3-Diamonds} river.

Lyndaker Starting to Heat Up

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Anthony Legg opened for 120,000 and Richard "nutsinho" Lyndaker called from the big blind to see a flop of {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}. Lyndaker led out for a hefty 500,000, which was most of his stack, and Legg got out of the way.

In the very next hand, Legg opened for 120,000 and Lyndaker three-bet jammed for 940,000 from the small blind. Manny Stavropoulos folded from the big blind and Legg did the same.

All Pre Flop

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

A flop hasn't been seen for a while as whoever has had the button has taken their turn in raising.

Joel Douaglin raised to 260,000 from the button and took the blinds and antes, as did Lennart Uphoff did with a 130,000 raise the very next hand.

Manny Stavropoulos must've thought there was something to the tactic as he tried the hand after, with a 140,000 raise, but folded when James Rann three-bet to 400,000 from the small blind.

Big River Call for Rast

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Brian Rast opened for 135,000 and Lennart Uphoff defended from the big blind to see a flop of {8-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. Uphoff then check-called a bet of 155,000 before both players checked the {3-Diamonds} turn. When the {6-Spades} completed the board on the river, Uphoff bet what looked to be 400,000 and Rast thought long and hard before making the call.

Uphoff showed {q-}{j-}, but it was no good as Rast had made a good call with the {a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}.
