Rast's Call Sends Hellmuth Into a Tirade

Level 9 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

In a hand from last level that just aired on the live stream, Brian Rast raised the button to 10,000 with the {5-Spades}{3-Spades} and Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 34,000 from the big blind with the {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}.

Rast called and then both players checked the {8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop. Hellmuth then bet 45,000 on the {9-Diamonds} turn and Rast called.

When the {4-Diamonds} completed the board on the river Hellmuth bluffed at it one more time by betting 66,000, which left him just 40,000 back. Rast hit the tank and used two time extension before picking it off and sending Hellmuth into one of his trademark rants.
