Polchlopek In Control
Table 18 is the closest table to reaching a finish. Going into three-handed play, James Obst was in control. That was, until a massive hand recently played out.
We caught the action with a flop showing and Obst in the hand against Michal Polchlopek. This is when Polchlopek check-raised to 47,000 and Obst made the call. The on the turn saw Polchlopek lead this time, making it 60,000 to go. The on the river saw Polchlopek shove his stack all in - for 160,800.
Obst went deep into the tank, thinking for a few minutes before Polchlopek eventually called the clock on him. Immediately after having the clock called on him, Obst flung his cards into the muck and sent the big pot to Polchlopek.
