Hand #127

Brian Rast had the button. Minh Ly opened to 200,000 from first position, Brian Rast three-bet to 500,000 on the button, and Ly called. The flop came down {2-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}, and Ly led for a cool million.

Rast tanked, then moved all in for 3.68 million. Ly called.

Ly: {j-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Rast: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

The turn was paint, but the {k-Diamonds} missed Ly, and Rast remained ahead. The {3-Hearts} bricked on the river, and Rast raised his hands in the air in celebration.

After an absolutely massive double, Rast is now our chip leader with more 8 million in his stack.
