Rast Takes Chunk from Arieh
Stud
A number of bets went in the middle on this stud hand between a couple of the big stacks, Brian Rast and Josh Arieh.
Rast: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Arieh: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Rast brought it in on third, then called after Arieh had completed. On fourth Arieh check-called Rast's bet, then on fifth Rast led with a bet which Arieh called again. When Arieh showed a pair of aces on sixth he bet, and Rast raised. Arieh paused a beat, then called. Arieh then check-called one more bet from Rast on seventh.
Rast turned over 
for aces and queens, and Arieh mucked.
