Vitch Gets the Win in Three-bet Pot With Rast

Nível 2

Pot Limit Omaha

Christopher Vitch was under the gun and opened to 4,000. Action folded to former PPC champion, Brian Rast, in middle position who three-bet to 14,500. Vitch thought it over and made the call.

The 5♥10♠5♣ flop hit and action checked to Rast who put out a bet of 11,000. Vitch smooth called again.

The turn brought a 7♥ and action slowed down and checked through.

The 4♦ river landed and Vitch went deep into the tank for almost two minutes before putting out a non-pot sized bet of 30,000. The sizing must've been spot-on because after no more that thirty seconds Rast made the fold and Vitch dragged a good pot without having to go to showdown.
