Obrestad Staying Steady

With the board showing the {q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, Annette Obrestad bet out 1,000 from the small blind only to have the player in the big blind raise to 2,000. Obrestad called and the river brought the {4-Spades}. After Obrestad checked the other player tossed out a bet of 2,000 and Obrestad folded her hand.

On the next hand a player in early position raised to 1,200 and action folded to Obrestad on the button who re-raised to 4,200. Everyone including the original raiser folded and Obrestad won the pot.

Obrestad has been chipping up over the past couple of hours and had around 84,000 in her stack after those hands.
