Obrestad Cripples Docherty

Annette Obrestad has seemed to make her own luck in this tournament. We imagine that her playing style causes her opponents to make mistakes that she takes advantage of. It was certainly a mistake for David Docherty to mix it up with Obrestad. He was in the big blind and called a raise to 13,000 preflop.

The flop came down {3-Spades} {A-Spades} {7-Spades}. Docherty bet another 20,000, then called a raise from Obrestad to 50,000. When the turn fell {10-Clubs}, Docherty checked. Obrestad, ever the aggressor, bet 74,000. That bet sent Docherty deep into the tank, where he stayed for several minutes as he pondered his decision. Finally he decided to move all in for 340,000. Obrestad snap-called all in for 70,000 less.

Docherty: {A-Diamonds} {6-Hearts}
Obrestad: {Q-Spades} {6-Spades}

Disaster for Docherty! Obrestad showed the second nuts. Docherty was drawing dead and had only 70,000 chips left after the hand. Obrestad, meanwhile, eclipsed 700,000.
