Three-Way Chop For Rast

Brian Rast raised to 4,000 from the hijack and was called by the players in the cutoff and small blind.

Action checked to the cutoff on the 7♥5♠2♠ flop and he bet 10,000. Both players called.

Everyone checked on the 8♣ turn and then the small blind led out for 15,000 when the 4♥ completed the board. Rast raised to 35,000 and the cutoff called all in for his remaining chips.

The small blind called as well and showed A♦8♥4♦3♥. Rast held A♣K♣J♦3♣ and the cutoff held A♠J♥3♦2♣ — meaning all three players had a wheel and they split up the pot.

Despite the chop, Rast has been building his stack rapidly and currently sits among the chip leaders in the room with just under 200,000.
