Liu Pays Obst Off

Dan O'Hair

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Sasha Liu opened to 1,500 from the hijack and James Obst defended his big blind.

Both players checked on the K♣J♦4♣ flop and then Liu called a 3,800 bet from Obst on the 8♥ turn.

The Q♣ completed the board and Obst sized up for a bet of 11,400, sending Liu deep into the tank.

After a couple minutes of contemplation, Liu looked up Obst, who tabled J♣J♠9♣3♠ for a flush. Liu couldn't beat it and sent her cards into the muck.
