Rast Takes a Hit

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

After a series of preflop bets and raises, a player was all in and at risk for 20,625 against Brian Rast.

Rast: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Opponent: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}

It was a classic race situation, and the {2-Spades}{q-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop gave Rast two backdoor draws. The {10-Clubs} on the turn kept his Broadway draw alive, but the {5-Hearts} on the river was a big red brick.

His opponent doubled up, while Rast slipped down to 38,700 chips.
