James Obst: A♣10♣10♠/10♦6♠7♥6♦
Qiang Xu: Q♠9♦5♦/Q♦J♥8♠K♠

Sterling Lopez completed and was raised by James Obst. Qiang Xu made it three bets to go and both Lopez and Obst called.

Obst and Lopez called a bet from Xu on fourth street and Xu bet again on fifth. Lopez called all in and Obst called as well.

On sixth street, Obst led out for a bet after pairing his six and Xu called. Both players then checked down on seventh.

Obst tabled tens in the hole for a full house, which was good for it all to scoop the large pot and eliminate Lopez late in the evening.
