Short-Stack Hobbs Gets There
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The under-the-gun player jammed for about 150,000 and the action folded around to Nicholas Hobbs in the cutoff, and he called off his short-stack of 25,000. The button and blinds quickly folded, and both hands were tabled.
Nicholas Hobbs: 10♠8♣
Under-The-Gun: A♥Q♥
Hobbs had two live cards and the J♦7♠6♦ flop gave him a gutshot straight draw as well. Hobbs paired his eight as the 8♦ fell on the turn, and the J♦ river meant Hobbs survived late in the evening.
