Level 3 : Limits 1,000/2,000, 0 ante
James Obst
James Obst

With 6,000 in the pot, James Obst bet from the small blind on the K♣9♦2♣ flop and Angelo Karimalis raised from the big blind. Obst three-bet, which Karimalis called.

Obst bet the 8♦ turn and Karimalis called for the 4♥ to complete the board.

Obst bet again and again Karimalis called. Obst turned over K♥Q♠ for a pair of kings, prompting a nod from Karimalis to indicate they were good, and Obst dragged in the pot.
