Rast Simply Bulldozing the Competition

Brian Rast - crushing as day 2 nears its end.
Brian Rast - crushing as day 2 nears its end.

It must be nice to be in Brian Rast right now.

In a recent hand, Brian Lemke opened from the cutoff and was 3-bet by Brian Rast from the button. The blinds got out of the way and Lemke responded by 4-bet shoving all-in for his last 120,000. Rast quickly called and hands were revealed.

Rast: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Lemke: {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Rast was in dominating shape to eliminate Lemke, and did just that, as the board ran out {A-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, leaving Rast with trip aces for the win.

Rast appears to be our current chip leader with 600,000.
