Obst Takes Out Two
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Shortly after his encounter with Chris Vitch, James Obst was involved in another big pot as two players were all in by the turn.
The board was showing 6♣7♠10♦7♥ as Joao Simao and a player on the button got their chips in the middle, with Obst having both of them well covered.
Simao had J♥A♣4♣2♦, the button 3♥9♦J♦A♦, and Obst A♠10♠8♦2♠. The river came the 9♠ and Obst made a straight to win the entire pot, knocking out the Brazilian bracelet winner and the button.
