Venneri Leaves Rastegari Steaming
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Shahram Rastegari opened to 7,000 from early position and was called by Antonino Venneri and Antoine Labat from the cutoff and big blind.
Rastegari continued for 8,500 on the 8♠6♥2♦ flop, and only Venneri called. On the 5♠ turn, Rastegari bet 26,000, and Venneri called once more.
The 7♥ completed the board and Rastegari fired another 25,000 into the pot. Venneri clicked it to 50,000 and was quickly called.
Rastegari fumed as Venneri tabled his A♠9♣, which went runner-runner to make a straight.
