Obst Scoops Mitseff in Three-Bet Pot

Level 26 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Jeffrey Mitseff raised from the button before facing a three-bet from James Obst out of the big blind. Mitseff called to see a flop of 3QA.

Obst bet and quickly got called by Mitseff and both saw the Q turn card.

Obst bet out again and again was called by Mitseff before watching as the dealer put the K out on the river.

One more bet from Obst and one more call from Mitseff led Obst to quickly turn up the AK54 for the nut flush, good enough to take the whole pot as Mitseff sent his cards into the muck.
