Obrestad Ousted
We walked up to Table 320 to see a flop of out on board and about 25,000 in the pot. Ryan Aiken, Mikhail Smirnov, and Nenad Medic all checked, and Annette Obrestad bet 16,300. That folded the first two checkers, but Medic raised to 45,000 and Obrestad moved all in for 84,500 total. Medic called with his covering stack, and our last lady left was at risk for her tournament life.
Showdown
Medic:
Obrestad:
Obrestad's overpair was no good, and she was looking for a heart or a third queen or king in order to stay alive. The turn gave her a few more outs to the gutshot, but the river slammed the door shut and relieved her of her remaining chips.
Medic is up to 210,000 now, and he and the rest of his table won't have to worry about Annette for the rest of the day.
