Rast Doubles

The under-the-gun player and Erik Seidel had both limped in before Brian "tsarrast" Rast raised to 550 from the cutoff seat. The under-the-gun player then reraised to 1,400 and Seidel got out of the way. Rast made the call.

The flop came down {10-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {7-Spades} and the first player led for 2,100. Rast raised to 4,200 and then his opponent came back over the top for a raise to 12,100. Rast made the call.

The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and Rast was faced with a bet big enough to put him all in. He made the call with the nuts, {J-Hearts} {9-Hearts}, and a heart redraw. His opponent showed pocket aces, {A-Clubs} {A-Hearts}. The river was another five, completing the double up for Rast. He's now back to 40,400 and his opponent is crippled.
