Marchese Doesn't Get There Against Rast

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 3,000 ante
Tom Marchese
Tom Marchese

Brian Rast raised to 9,000 from the hijack and Tom Marchese responded with an all-in three-bet for 44,000 more from the button. Both blinds folded and Rast called.

Marchese: {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Rast: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

It was a flip, but Marchese needed to improve to stay alive. That proved easier said than done though as the board ran out a dry {5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{j-Spades}{a-Hearts}.
