Rast Defends, Rast Wins
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Will Failla opened the action to 3,200 from middle position and the action folded to Brian Rast in the big blind who defended.
The 10?7?Q? monotone flop was checked by Rast and Failla quickly put out a bet of 3,500. Rast thought for a bit and made the call.
The 8? rolled off on the turn and both players checked. The river came a K? and now Rast turned the pressure up on the four flush board by betting 6,500. Failla went into the tank for only a moment but eventually mucked his cards.
Rast dragged the pot and has a healthy chip stack halfway through the day.
