Obst Doubles Through

McLEOD doubles, not out of the woods though

With two limpers in front, James "Andy McLEOD" Obst holding {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

{8-Spades}

raised to 400 from his big blind preflop. The {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{4-Spades}

flop ensued and with the small blind player checking, Obst bet 200, David Campbell called in late position and the small blind folded.

With the {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

on the turn Obst moved his final 150 chips into the pot and Campbell not surprisingly made the call. Campbell tabled {k-Hearts}

{k-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

and Obst would need to dodge any heart that didn't pair the board. With the river throwing down a blank he was able to double through.

Obst is clinging to life in this tournament at 1,800.
