Brian Rast

Brian Rast just won a couple of nice-sized pots to move his stack closer to the million-chip mark.

In the first, Rast found himself all in on the turn against Bruno Fitoussi with the board showing {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

. Rast had {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{J-Diamonds}

for aces, but Fitoussi had {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{5-Spades}

for two pair. However, the {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

on the river paired the board, counterfeiting Fitoussi's hand and giving Rast the huge 800,000-chip pot. Fitoussi was down to 200,000 after that one.

In the next hand, Rast called Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott's all in of approximately 100,000. Rast showed {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

{7-Clubs}

, well behind Ulliott's {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Diamonds}

. But the flop brought Rast his needed seven -- {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{6-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

-- and no king came on the turn or river to save Devilfish. Ulliott is out, and Rast is up to 910,000.
