Hobson Doubles Through Du Plessis

Greg Hobson Doubles Up
Greg Hobson Doubles Up

Seth Davies had the button and Greg Hobson raised to 35,000. Davies called and it was around to Eugene Du Plessis who made it 150,000 to go.

Hobson replied by moving all in for 510,000 total. Davies got out of the way and the hands were flipped up after Du Plessis announced a call.

Du Plessis: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Hobson: {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

We were racing here at the final table and Hobson retained his lead on the flop of {8-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{6-Spades}. The {4-Diamonds} turned and Du Plessis was in need of an ace or king to eliminate Hobson from the field. Fortunately for Hobson the river was the {4-Spades}, allowing his tens to hold and him to score a double up.
