James Obst shoved all in for just under 1.5 million first to act. Ming Xi announced a call in the cutoff as soon as he saw his cards. Everyone else folded.

James Obst: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Ming Xi: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

The board ran out {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{j-Hearts}, so Obst hit his jack on the river just as he was starting to leave the table. He shrugged, smiled, and sat back down.
