Rast Extends His Lead

Daniel J O'Hair

Niveau 31 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Brian Rast has been chipping away at David Eldridge and Ethan Cahn in small pots as of late.

In a recent hand, Rast raised to 1,750,000 on the button with A♥10♣5♠3♣ and was called by Ethan Cahn in the big blind with A♣K♥J♣2♦.

Both players checked on the Q♠7♠A♠ flop and then Cahn check-folded facing an 800,000 bet from Rast on the 7♣ turn.
