On a board showing {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

, Obst check-called a 750 bet from an opponent on the way to the turn: {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

. Both Obst and his opponent checked the turn, and Obst led out with a 1,275 bet when the {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

rolled off on the river. Obst's opponent made the call and, the man better known as 'Andy McLEOD' online, rolled over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Clubs}

for a straight to take down the pot. His opponent flashed {A-?}

{A-?}

{4-?}

for two pair before tossing his cards into the muck.

After the hand, Obst stacked up just over 14,000 in chips and is off to a fast start here in the early levels of play.
