Oberhauser Spikes the Turn to Double Through McCullagh
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Ciaran McCullagh opened to 200,000 from early position and Valentin Oberhauser defended his big blind.
The flop came 9♥Q♠6♠ and Oberhauser bet 550,000 — leaving himself just 45,000 behind. McCullagh quickly announced he was all in and Oberhauser called to put himself at risk.
Valentin Oberhauser: 8♦7♠
Ciaran McCullagh: A♠A♦
The 5♠ turn immediately filled Oberhauser's straight draw and left McCullagh drawing dead.
An irrelevant 5♦ completed the board and Oberhauser was awarded the double up.
