Chen Leaves Rast on Fumes
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 30,000 ante
Brian Rast raised to 40,000 in the cutoff and Darren Elias called on the button. James Chen then three-bet to 210,000 in the small blind and only Rast called.
Both players took one and Chen then moved all in. "It's an easy decision card," Rast said as he peeled his last card, but he didn't like what he saw and tossed all five away.
The next hand, Daniel Negreanu raised to 50,000 in middle position and Chen three-bet again, this time making it 175,000 on the button. Negreanu called and drew one, while Chen stood pat.
Both players checked and Chen showed 10x7x6x5x3x to win another pot.
