Rast Just Misses Out on Money
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
As recounted from a video taken from a player at the table, Brian Rast opened the action by potting it to 18,000 under the gun. Chino Rheem then repotted to 62,000. David Williams flatted, before Brian Rast then potted again, just shy of putting him all in. Chino Rheem put in the rest of it in, Williams folded, and Rast made the call.
Brian Rast: A♦Q♣10♦7♣ 
Chino Rheem: A♣A♠10♠8♣
The 5♦5♠9♥4♦J♥ runout, ironically, sent Rast home very shortly after informing the table that the bubble was not the time to get it in. Rheem happily collected the chips and crossed the seven-figure mark.
