Stud

Schreiber: {x-}{x-} / {4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts} / {x-}
Horowitz: {x-}{x-} / {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{10-Spades} / {x-}
Obst: {x-}{x-} / {K-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} / {x-}

We caught up to the action on sixth street with already over 40,000 in the pot. On sixth, Horowitz checked with his pair of tens over to Schreiber. Schreiber bet and Obst and Horowitz both called.

On seventh, Horowitz and Schreiber both checked over to Obst. Obst moved all in for less than a bet with his stack of 3,700. Both players eventually decided on calls.

Obst showed {K-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for two pairs.

"I can beat that," Schreiber said.

Horowitz turned up {9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts} for two pairs as well, albeit a worse two. Schreiber eventually turned up {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}{5-Hearts} for a slightly better two than Obst with his fours on board, and that was good to earn him the big pot, sealing Obst's elimination.
