Rast Joins and Wins
Level 12
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Brian Rast is coming off a victory and his fifth WSOP gold bracelet in Event #51: $3,000 NLH 6-Handed and just recently took his seat for the first time in this event. The action folded around to Jesse Yaginuma who limped in from the small blind and Rast checked his option.
The flop came 
and Yaginuma led out with a bet of 4,000. Rast called and the 
paired the board on the turn. Yaginuma fired another 12,000 and Rast still called to see the 
on the river.
Yaginuma checked this time and Rast threw in a bet of 40,000. Yaginuma quickly mucked his cards and Rast collected his first pot of the day.
