Obst Picks Off Zhu
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Limits: 12,000-42,000
Yueqi Zhu limped the small blind, James Obst potted to 36,000 from the big blind, and Zhu called.
On the K♣10♦9♠ flop, Zhu led for 50,000 and Obst called.
The turn brought the 2♦. Zhu led again for 125,000 and Obst stuck around.
On the 8♠ river, Zhu put together a bet of 159,000 and slid it into the middle, with just 145,000 behind. Obst would go deep into the tank for over two minutes before he tossed in the call.
"Two pair," announced Zhu as he showed 8♦2♠, which was no good as Obst tabled K♠4♠2♥2♣ for a set of twos for the winner as he scooped a big one.
