Hobbs Doubles Through Potashnik

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

There was a substantial pot of about 38,000 already brewing and the board read {Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{8-Clubs} when we got to the table. Bryan Potashnik checked from the big blind and Kevin Hobbs jammed from the hijack for 29,500. Potashnik had Hobbs covered by a very narrow margin and called.

Hobbs: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Potashnik: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}

Potashnik held top pair, top kicker but found himself trailing Hobbs's overpair. The {8-Diamonds} river changed nothing, so Hobbs took the pot to leave Potashnik with crumbs.
