James Obst

Patrick Carron opened with a shove for his last 12,900 from under the gun and Van Marcus made the call in early position. The action folded around to James Obst in the big blind, who announced he was all in for 65,000 in total.

"I should've known you were going to do that!" exclaimed Marcus before folding pocket sixes face-up.

Obst showed {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

to be in good shape against Carron's {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

. The board fell {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

{J-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

and although Carron paired up on the flop, Obst caught a queen on the river to take down a nice pot. Obst is now back on track and sits with close to 80,000 chips.
