On the 14th hand-for-hand deal, Joshua Mullins raised to 12,000 on the button. James Obst made the call in defense of his big blind.
The flop hit J♥9♠10♣, bringing a continuation from Mullins of 10,000. Obst called.
When the 5♠ fell on the turn, Obst checked again, and Mullins bet 36,000. Obst doubled-checked his hand, then moved all in with 94,000 chips.
Mullins made the call and the table waited for the tournament director to monitor the rest of the runout.
James Obst: Q♦Q♠8♥6♣
Joshua Mullins: K♣Q♥9♦8♣
Obst was drawing dead, as his best hand was the queen-high straight he already had.
Mullins flopped the nut-straight to the king. The A♠ on the river gave him a little higher straight, but it was immaterial.
