Watanabe Whisks Away Oborne

Two-oo-oo-oo-outer!
Two-oo-oo-oo-outer!
Mark Cornwell limped in early position before Chip Me Up player Damien Oborne made it 500 from the cutoff. Yoshie Watanabe made the call from the button, as did Cornwell.

The flop fell down {K-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Cornwell checked to Oborne who fired out 1,500 in to both players. Watanabe sat there riffling through her chips, before making the call. Cornwell passed and the dealer peeled the {Q-Diamonds} on the turn.

Oborne asked for a count and Watanabe just spread her chips in front of her without giving a definitive answer. Oborne looked the stack up and down before betting out 5,000. Watanabe then immediately splashed the pot with an all in reraise to 9,125. After some deliberation Oborne made the call.

Oborne: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Watanabe: {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}

Sick to his stomach at being hit with a two-outer, Oborne saw the meaningless {2-Hearts} land on the river and passed the chips to Watanabe to see her double to over 21,000 as Oborne slipped to 12,100 in chips.
