Brian Rast called the bring-in and Nikolay Ponomarev completed. David Steicke called all in for his last 18,000 and just behind him, Ray Fishman raised. Rast then made it three bets to go and Ponomarev responded with a four-bet. Fishman called all in and Rast called as well for a massive four-way pot.
Rast called bets from Ponomarev on fourth and fifth street before betting himself on sixth after Ponomarev caught a queen. Ponomarev called.
Both players checked on seventh and Rast turned over his hole cards for an eight-seven-six-five-three. Fishman tabled an eight-seven-six-four-ace for the main pot and Rast took the side — eliminating Steicke, who only made a ten-seven, in 12th place.
