Rast Catches Eldridge Bluffing to Retake the Lead
Level 33
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
David Eldridge opened to 2,400,000 on the button with 10♦6♠5♦2♥ and Brian Rast called in the big blind holding A♥K♥6♦4♦.
Eldridge continued for 3,500,000 after Rast checked to him on the Q♥5♣K♣ flop. Rast flatted to see a turn.
The turn came 4♠, prompting Rast to check once more. Eldridge was in no mood to give up on the hand, instead betting a hefty 12,600,000. After some thought, Rast moved all in, standing as he did so as if he was sure he was going to be called. Eldridge quickly folded, somewhat to Rast's surprise as the six time bracelet winner raked in a large pot without going to showdown.
