Raz Running it Up
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 12,000 ante
"Bro, I warned you."
"Which way to the final table?"
"You've created a monster!"
These are all quotes from Yanni Raz as he just dragged a huge pot to elevate his stack to one of the biggest in the room.
After Jon Kyte raised under the gun and was called by Raz in the small blind and Shawn Buchanan in the big blind, each player drew one card.
Raz then led right out for 50,000. Buchanan folded, but Kyte asked to see Raz's stack. Upon seeing he had a total of 160,000, he moved all in, and Raz quickly called.
Raz showed 
for number two, which left Kyte shaking his head at Raz's recent heater which has seen him grow a very healthy stack.
