Lupascu Knocks Out Fast
Level 22
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
With two players seeing a final board of 5♥8♣4♠7♦6♥ and around 300,000 in the middle, Dietrich Fast bet 600,000 from the big blind, leaving around 725,000 behind. Matei Lupascu moved all in with a covering stack from the cutoff and Fast went deep into the tank.
Fast burned through five time extensions before making the call, revealing that he was playing the straight on the board with J♦10♠. Lupascu had the nut-straight with 10♥9♥ to send Fast to the rail and take the pot.
