Rast Scores an Elimination
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Three-way on a flop of 9♥10♦K♦, Eduards Rakuss was already all in and at risk for 400,000. Brian Rast was in early position and Nicolas Betbese on the button. Both checked to find the 3♠ turn where Rast bet 300,000. Betnese called.
The 7♦ river completed the board, and Rast moved all in, making Betbese quickly fold.
Eduards Rakuss: A♦J♥
Brian Rast: K♠J♠
Rast hit top pair to beat Rakuss' ace-jack and send him to the rail.
