When we got to the table, the cards were already on their backs and the complete {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{7-Diamonds} board was out. James Obst was under the gun with {A-Spades}{9-Spades} and had gotten the chips in against a player who held {6-}{5-} for a flopped open-ended straight draw. Obst's hand held and he took the pot to double up.
