Obinger Jams, Dull Stands Firm

Level 21 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Jason Obinger
Jason Obinger

Jason Obinger had action fall to him in the cutoff, he opted to shove for a total of 710,000. The action folded to Jonathan Dull in the big blind, "I don't think I can fold," he said as he contemplated a call that would leave him with just a couple big blinds if he lost.

In the end, Dull called and Obinger was at risk as the two players turned over their cards.

Jason Obinger: {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Jonathan Dull: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

The flop came {q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and dull picked up some straight outs. An {a-Diamonds} instantly peeled off on the turn, hitting Dull with a rocket to shift the lead.

An {8-Clubs} completed the board and Obinger took a walk to the payout desk, sending a considerably sized pot to Dull late on Day 2.

Matthew Thompson: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
John Davis: {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
