Obara Back to Even

Level 5 : 200/400, 50 ante

Jun Obara has been a busy bunny and has made a sterling recovery from his earlier misfortunes and has run his 10,000 stack back up to the 50,000 starting stack.

Some of those chips have come from Xiaoling Li, whom we caught in action against Obara in the following hand.

Li had a single blue 1k chip out on the felt in front of here in middle position when we arrived, though we are unsure if this represented a limp or a raise. However, we do know that Obara, sitting in the next seat, had raised to 1,500.

Action folded back around Li who mulled over her options and elected to call to take play heads-up to the {4-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop.

Li checked, Obara continuation bet 1,500 and Li made the call to bring in the {2-Hearts} turn. This saw both player check and the {5-Diamonds} river completed a possible flush and saw Li lead out for 2,500.

Obara now raised, quickly tossing out a bet of 8,500 to send Li into the think tank where she remained for the full 30-seconds of time before making the fold and leaving Obara to rake in a decent sized pot.
