Vitch Leaves Rast on Crumbs

Level 5

Stud Hi-Lo:

Brian Rast: {x-}{x-}/{J-Spades}{8-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{7-Hearts}/{x-}
Chris Vitch: {x-}{x-}/{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}/{x-}
Dan Shak: {x-}{x-}/{4-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{10-Spades}folded on fifth

Brian Rast completed and and Dan Shak Called. Chris Vitch called as well creating three-way action.

Action checked to Vitch on fourth and he bet, finding calls from both players. On fifth, action checked to Vitch again. He bet, then Rast raised, making it two bets. Shak folded and Vitch called.

On sixth street, Vitch checked. Rast bet, and Vitch called. On seventh, Vitch led out and Rast went into the tank. He stood up from his chair and eventually called.

Vitch showed {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for aces up, while Rast flashed {A-Spades} for a pair of aces that were no good. So with that, Vitch scooped the pot leaving Rast with just over 15,000 chips.
