Obadun Rivers Straight, Moves Table Straight Away

Francis Obadun raised under the gun to 9,000 (blinds still 2,000/4,000), called by big blind Christopher Day alone.

The flop: Th Qd 9h. Day checked, Obadun bet 7,000 and Day then raised to 21,000. After a short pause, Obadun called.

The turn: 5c. Out led Day for 22,000. After peering at his opponent’s stack (it was 101,000), Obadun made the call.

The river: 8d. Day checked, and Obadun checked behind. “Two pair,” said Day, showing exactly that with Tc Qc. “Straight,” countered Obadun, showing down Ad Jc.

“I should have jammed the turn…” murmured Day, as Obadun was instantly moved to a new table, along with his now 250,000 stack.
