Seiken Catches Obst Bluffing
Niveau 14
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Three-way to fifth street, James Obst was betting to the pot with a pair of tens exposed. Nicholas Seiken called and Mark Gregorich laid his hand down.
Obst fired again on sixth when Seiken spiked a third spade card. Seiken stuck around and Obst fired another shell on the river. Seiken was visibly puzzled but tossed in calling chips.
James Obst: 
/ 
Nicholas Seiken: 
/ 
Mark Gregorich: /

Seiken's hero call paid off as Obst failed to connect with his hole cards, showing just the open pair of tens.

Yu Drops Some
Niveau 14
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
With the action on the river, Ben Yu was facing a bet from Paul Mangine. There was around 80,000 lying in the pot and Yu took his time before finally tossing in two calling chips.
Mangine quietly said, "Queens up," while his board looked more straighty-flushy.
Yu, however, couldn't beat the two pair and mucked.
