Lewis Good with the Ladies

Five players made it as far as the {4-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} flop, and Christopher Chau opened the betting from the small blind. The bet was 350. Annette Obrestad called in the big blind, Daniel Tafur and John Kabbaj both passed, and recent EPT winner Toby Lewis called in late position. Thus three players saw the turn.

Turn: {8-Hearts}

This time Chau bet out 1,100. Obrestad called again, but this time Lewis paused only very briefly before announcing that he was going to raise the pot - an additional 5,225. Chau dwelled long and hard before giving it up and the action moved to Obrestad. She spent a minute or two peering at either the board or the pot (it's hard to tell with the sunglasses) and then called all in.

Lewis: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a set of queens and a gutshot straight draw
Obrestad: {j-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts} for the nut flush and a variety of straight draws

River: {9-Diamonds}, bringing in none of those draws

The pot duly went to Lewis, putting him back up a shade over his starting stack - 16,000 with no lammers behind. Obrestad was left with only her three lammers, one of which was quickly exchanged for actual chips from the dealer. That's 12,000 total for the inaugural WSOP Main Event winner.
