Obst Delivers Internet Flop

James Obst, during Day 1 action
James Obst, during Day 1 action
We didn't catch the action, however Kwang Soo Lee had opened with a raise from the cutoff and James Obst defended from the small blind. The chips went into the middle preflop with Obst 's {K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} needing to improve against Lee's {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}.

Remarkably the flop fell {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} giving Obst a flush and a lock on the hand. The turn was the {A-Hearts} and river a meaningless {10-Hearts} to send the pot to Obst. After a count of chips, Obst had Lee covered and he was sent to the rail.

A nice Internet flop for the online phenom who is now looking dangerous with stacks of chips in front of him worth about 60,000.
