Oghabian Flops the Nuts; Cannot Hold
Level 5
: 200/400, 400 ante
The flop showed 
and Tomas Petru, as well as Milad Oghabian, had checked out of the blinds. Pavel Kovalenko in late position bet 1,700 and Petru check-raised to 4,300. Oghbanian eyed the stack of his table neighbor carefully and moved all in, which forced an instant fold from Kovalenko.
Petru called it off and was at risk with the 
for middle pair and the nut flush draw. Oghabian had a big blind special with 
for the flopped straight only to see his hand fail to hold up on the 
turn and 
river. Petru doubled for 13,700 and put a dent into Oghabian's stack.
