Obst Turns Help and Rivers More

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player in middle position bet 6,600 into three opponents on a {2-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop. James Obst called on the button, and the blinds both folded. Obst called another barrel on the {8-Clubs} turn, this time 8,900. The river brought the {4-Diamonds} and a check from Obst's opponent. The Aussie star dropped in 21,000.

His opponent thought about two minutes before making the call, and he could only shake his head when Obst showed {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a flush.
