Obst: {X-}{X-} / {7-}{9-}{4-}{8-} / {X-}
Leah: {X-}{X-} / {7-}{Q-}{J-}{10-} / {X-}

After some controversy regarding whether or not Ted Forrest revealed a hole card from the bring-in, the dealer and floor staff exposed his {3-Clubs}.

James Obst completed. Next to act Mike Leah raised. Action folded around and Obst called. On fourth street, Obst bet and Leah called. On fifth street, Obst bet again.

"Fuck," Leah said upon seeing his card and what remained of his chips. Eventually, he threw in the call, leaving himself with just 2,000.

On sixth, Obst bet and Leah called all in.

Obst showed {2-}{6-} for an eighty-seven while Leah held {2-}{3-} and was drawing dead as he could only make a ten-low. Obst last card was a {10-} while Leah drew a {4-} and was eliminated from the tournament.
