Shortly after he was involved in a pot with Frank Kassela and had most of his chips already in, both players opted to check sixth.

"Alright, let's bring on the skill game," Kassela said with a paired trey and bet seventh. Obst gave it some thought and called.

Kassela announced a queen and showed his first. Obst was somewhat confused and turned over his , thinking he also had a queen. Only then he realized that it was a jack, and he scooped a pot.

"That was actually a pretty good bet, he thought he called with a queen against my solid queen-eight," Kassela added in table chat.

In the meanwhile, Chris Klodnicki was left with only a few antes after pairing his queen. He was about to send those few chips over to Chris Ferguson, but both had checked seventh and Klodnicki was left with a chip and a chair story.
