Home Field Advantage

'The Big Show'
'The Big Show'
Home field advantage can be worth a couple of points in some sports. We're wondering how much it's worth in poker.

If Steve Topakas is anything to go by, it could be quite influential.

After the chips went in preflop, Topakas was racing with his {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts} against the all in Rainer Obst with {Q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}.

Obst took the lead in the race on the {k-Spades}{q-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop. Then the hometown magic kicked in with the turn {j-Hearts}.

"YESSSSS!!!" roared the Big Show.

The river {3-Diamonds} would send Rainer Obst to the rail.

Topakas has 280,000. Obst goes out 21st ($50,000 AUD).
