Eric Rappaport Doubles Through David Gerassi

Level 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Eric Rappaport
Eric Rappaport

After flatting an opening raise with {K-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, Eric Rappaport hoped to see the reliably reckless David Gerassi make a move from the small blind.

And what a move he made, shoving all in to try and steal the sizable pot. The original raiser got out of the way and Rappaport snapped off the bet with his cowboys. Gerassi had found a pocket pair, but his {8-Spades}{8-Hearts} was outgunned and overmatched.

When the final board rolled out {4-Spades}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{a-Hearts}, Rappaport turned to his friends on the rail to talk the hand over, while Gerassi offered a "nice hand" to the man two seats to his right.
