Rast Doubles After Porto's Light Call
Brian Rast opened the button to 300,000 and Bruno Porto called from the big blind.
They both saw a flop of K?6?Q? which Porto checked, Rast bet 275,000, and Porto check-raised to 725,000. Rast had another bet up his sleeve as he min-raised to 1,175,000, which Porto eventually called.
A 3? fell on the turn and after Porto checked, Rast gathered the remainder of his chips into a single stack and put it into the pot. The bet was 1,650,000 and Porto appeared to have just over that in his stack. It took around six minutes before Porto finally made up his mind and decided to call.
Brian Rast: K?9? 
Bruno Porto: 7?6?
Porto needed some help on the river but the 5? wasn't what he was looking for, which meant Rast doubled up. Brazil's Porto thought he was eliminated but once the stacks were counted down, he learned that he had around 450,000 chips remaining.
