Bouya Bouncing

Obst called from the button and was raised to 30,000 from Phares Bouya in the big blind. Obst asked to see how much Bouya had before making the call.

The flop fell {8-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Bouya led for 30,000. Obst then made it 39,000 more and received the call from Bouya.

The {6-Diamonds} on the turn brought about a check from Bouya and a 77,000 chip bet from Obst. Bouya called and watched as the {3-Clubs} hit the river.

Bouya almost instantly moved all-in on the river and sent a decision to Obst, who ended up going with the call.

Bouya tabled his {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a rivered straight and took down the pot to put a big dent in Obst's stack.
