Rast Left with One Chip
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 10♠7♦3♠ and about 30,000 in the middle, Jeff Madsen bet 25,000 from out of position, Brian Rast shoved for 112,500 and Madsen, who had exactly 112,000 to start the hand, made the call to put himself at risk.
Jeff Madsen: A♠8♠5♠3♦ 
Brian Rast: A♣Q♦7♥7♠
The rest of the board ran out 2♥9♠. Rast did not have a low and Madsen had rivered a flush to crack Rast's set and take the pot while Rast was left with one-eighth of a big blind.
