: 5,000/10,000, 2,000 ante
James Obst raised to 25,000 to start the action, and his neighbor Nick Schulman three-bet it up to 55,000. Obst called the extra amount, and they went heads up to a 
flop. Obst checked, and Schulman stacked a bet of 87,000 out across the betting line. Obst took several minutes to fiddle with his stack -- he had 303,000 chips left -- alternately cutting out the call, then a raise, then stacking his chips back together. Eventually, a raise came, and a small one to 175,000. Schulman promptly moved all in, and Obst snap-folded to save his 128,000 chips for a better spot.
