Obst Flo-ws Away With Some Chips

Florian Langmann made it 12,000 to go preflop and saw one caller in James Obst.

The flop came down {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}. That's when Langmann made a 13,000 chip bet and Obst followed along.

The two checked the {j-Hearts} on the turn.

When the {8-Diamonds} hit the river, Langmann checked giving Obst the opportunity to bet, which he did. Langmann folded to the 30,000 bet.

When the {10-Clubs} fell on the turn, Watson fired out a bet of 12,600 and was called by Obst.

A 27,500 chip bet was made by Watson on the {2-Clubs} river and was called by Obst as well.
