Damien Oborne

The action folds to Poker News writer Damien Oborne who throws out a single 500 chip from late position. After some confusion, the bet is considered only a call rather than a raise, and both blinds come along to see a cheap flop.

The flop brings {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and the player in the big blind leads for 300. Oborne raises it up to 800 and the big blind makes the call.

The turn is the {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

and both players check. The river lands the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

and Oborne tosses 1,000 in the pot and is quickly called. Oborne flips over {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

for the straight which is too good for his opponent's pair of jacks. Oborne is progressing well and now has close to 10,000 in chips.
