Obara Binks the River to Survive
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Matas Cimbolas opened the hijack and was faced with a three-bet from Jun Obara on the button to 14,000. Cimbolas then four-bet and called the shove of Obara who had around 70,000 chips.
Jun Obara: 10?10?
Matas Cimbolas: A?K?
Cimbolas paired his ace on the 7?A?8? flop which left Obara with two outs.
Obara failed with his first chance as the 2? changed nothing, but was successful with the second as he improved to a set on the 10? river to keep him alive.
