hide4115 Eliminated by Obara
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
With the turbo heat providing only nicknames, and the players getting their chips in every other minute, it was perhaps a surprise but none other than Jun Obara has appeared with a large stack. Known under his moniker of "Misawa", he had turned a below-average stack into much more and has been his usual bubbly self.
The chip leader to start Day 2, hide4115, was his latest victim when he got it in preflop for around ten blinds with A♠4♠. Obara only had 10♠8♠ and flopped the straight right away on J♦9♣7♣. The J♥ turn and 4♥ river were formalities to reduce the field to the last five tables, as hide4115 bowed out in 41st place.
