James Obst won the first LK Boutique ring of the 2016 Aussie Millions Poker Championship, taking down Event #2 $2,500 H.O.R.S.E. inside the Crown Poker Room Friday, defeating a final table full of local legends.
2014 Sydney Championships $5,000 Challenge winner Jarryd Godena was the first to exit the seven-handed final and 2015 Australian Poker Hall of Fame nominee Michael Guttman bubbled the money finishing sixth.
2008 Victorian Poker Championship $100,000 Challenge winner Peter Aristidou was then eliminated in fifth place after getting in on fifth street in Razz, heads up with Jan Suchanek. Suchanek make a seven-low on the river against his eight-low.
Suchanek continued to run hot in Razz, eliminating Australian Poker Hall of Fame member Mel Judah in fourth when he made a 9-7-4 against Judah's 9-7-6, again on seventh street.
Fellow Australian Poker Hall of Fame member Jason Gray then fell third, getting crippled in a Stud hand before getting it all in against Obst in Stud Hi/Lo, missing a low draw and ending up with a lower pair than Obst's.
Obst took a 2:1 chip lead into heads up play and after a back and forth affair that saw Suchanek climb back close to even several times, Obst ultimately won it to earn his second Aussie Millions title.
Previously, Obst won the the 2014 Aussie Millions $2,500 8-Game event, ironically defeating Suchanek heads up in that one as well.
Limit Hold'em
Left with barely any chips, Jan Suchanek even had to pay the big blind and called all in for another 2,500 behind when James Obst raised from the small blind. The tournament director announced "Jan is all in with seven of diamonds and three of hearts" and Suchanek joked "You don't have to say that loud" to create laughter from the entire rail.

The flop paired the 10 of Obst and Suchanek was left needing running sevens or threes. The turn gave some chop outs, yet the river blanked to send Suchanek to the rail in 2nd place and crown Obst as champion just like two years ago when the duo clashed in the 8-Game Event.
