Channing Gets Obstinate-d

Just before the break, the biggest hand of the tournament occured.

James Obst opened for 800 in middle position, Barney Boatman made the call on the button before Neil Channing reraised to 3,200 from the button.

Obst then reraised to 6,900 and Boatman folded, Channing though wanted a count on the young internet player's stack before moving all-in.

Obst instantly called with {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} dominating Channing's {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} and holding on a {Q-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {9-Spades} board. Obst is up to 115,000 and Channing is left with 27,000.

Barny Boatman told our reporter he folded Tens and was glad to get out of the hand when he did.
