Roller Coaster for Obi

Level 23 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Hand #39: Chiduziem Obi raised and won the pot.

Hand #40: Mark Mierkalns raised and won the pot.

Hand #41: Obi raised in early position, Grayson Scoggin made it three bets in the small blind, and Obi called. Scoggin led out when the flop came {7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, Obi raised, and Scoggin called. Scoggin check-raised Obi when the {6-Clubs} turned, Obi called, and the {9-Hearts} completed the board. Obi check-folded to a bet, leaving himself with just 78,000 chips.

Hand #42: Mierkalns won the pot with a preflop raise.

Hand #43: Scoggin raised, then called a three-bet from William James, who was on the button. Scoggins led out on the flop ({8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}), and the turn ({7-Spades}), and James folded on the turn.

Hand #44: Mierkalns raised in early position, Obi three-bet from the small blind, Mierkalns put him all in, and Obi called.

Mierkalns: {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}
Obi: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

Obi's aces held, despite flopping a sweat ({5-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}), and turning an even bigger one ({8-Diamonds}). The {3-Hearts} bricked on the river, awarding Obi with the pot.

Hand #45: Brian Nichols raised in middle position, Brent Wheeler three-bet out of the big blind, and Nichols moved all in for 53,000. Wheeler called.

Wheeler: {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Nichols: {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Nichols held as the board came {k-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, doubling to 110,000 chips.
