Obst Shoves Through Simao
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Joao Simao raised to 15,000 and James Obst defended his big blind. He then check-called a bet of 15,000 on the Q♦10♠2♣ flop. Following the 2♥ turn, Obst check-raised from 17,000 to 47,000 with Simao calling. That led them to the J♦ on the river.
Obst moved all-in for 132,000, which sent Simao deep into the tank. Several minutes passed before Simao said "I have a very strong feeling that you are bluffing queen-ten," and folded a few seconds later.
