Brian Rast Eliminated in 10th Place ($36,526)
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Joao Vieira opened for 200,000 in the hijack and Brian Rast defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 10?8?5? and Rast pushed a stack across the line for a bet of 500,000. Vieira quickly announced a raise and Rast called off his stack of 665,000.
Brian Rast: 10?7?6?7?
Joao Vieira: K?J?10?6?
Rast had flopped top pair and a straight draw, but was going to need to catch up against the higher kicker of Vieira, who also had top pair to go with his flush draw. The 2? turn and 3? river were no help and Rast exited the tournament in tenth place.
