Rast Gets Thin Value
Level 30
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Brian Rast limped in the small blind with J♠J♥6♠2♥ and then called a raise to 1,200,000 by David Eldridge in the big blind, who held A♠7♠6♦2♦.
Rast checked following the A♦K♥3♥ flop. Eldridge continued for 1,200,000 but was unable to shake off Rast as he made the call.
Action checked through the A♥ turn to the 3♣ river where Rast led out for 400,000. Eldridge quickly called and was shown the bad news by Rast, who had made a flush to take down the pot.
