Obrestad Eliminates Dempsey

Annette Obrestad
Annette Obrestad

James Dempsey raised in early position only to have Annette Obrestad reraise from the hijack, Dempsey then moved all in for around 28,000, Obrestad called, and the cards were revealed.

Dempsey: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Obrestad: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

Dempsey was in big trouble and desperately needed a six to improve his tournament outlook. The {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{3-Spades} flop was no help, and neither was the {K-Hearts} turn. Dempsey needed a six in the river to stay alive, but it was the {5-Spades} that appeared.

Likewise, Vladimir Shchemelev was recently eliminated from the tournament.
