Double Down for Hobson

Greg Hobson

The flop read {9-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and Justin Schwartz was the first one to check. Next it came around to Greg Hobson who bet out 19,000. The rest of the table folded back to Schwartz who raised to 40,000. After a minute or so Hobson moved all in and Schwartz called.

Hobson: {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Schwartz: {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}

Hobson looked to be in prime position to double up as long as he could avoid a queen or a king on the turn and the river.

The {2-Diamonds} on the turn, and the {9-Diamonds} on the river sealed the deal and Hobson doubled.
