Michael Pedley Eliminated in 27th Place (AU$30,000)

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Pedley - 27th Place
Michael Pedley - 27th Place

Michael Pedley stood in disbelief at the fact he had just been eliminated in 27th place. There were no bad beats, but instead one incredible call from Brian Rast.

Three players saw a flop come {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, and when it checked to Rast who bet from the button only Pedley called from the big blind. Pedley again stuck with him after the {k-Spades} turn where he check-raised Rast's 115,000 bet up to 230,000. Rast made a quick call before facing an all-in bet from Pedley valued at 390,000 on the {q-Hearts} river.

Rast immediately asked how much the shove was, which showed his interest. He then went through a period of several minutes where he folded his arms, stood up, and sat back down again, all the time while mumbling to himself trying to figure out what Pedley could have. Eventually, he made the call with {j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} for just a pair of nines! Pedley told him it's a good call and opened {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}.

Rast received lots of praise from the rest of the table and those looking on from the rail. Some gave him a little fist pump to acknowledge just how good the calls was.

"I know, right! I wanted to call, but how can you call with that?" said Rast.
