Obst Prevails Against a Scary Board
James Obst made it two bets after Matt Grapenthien completed and Grapenthien called to continue heads-up.
Obst had an ace out and bet on fourth again. Grapenthien stuck around called, picking up a third diamond on his board on fifth. Obst slowed down, checking, and Grapenthien used his texture to apply pressure. Obst, however, wasn't willing to go away.
Sixth street was even more dangerous for Obst. He paired his ace but Grapenthien picked up another fantastic card and his board was showing four cards to a king-high straight flush with 
/ 
.
Obst had at least a blocker for the nut flush but he certainly liked the check-back he'd received.
Grapenthien checked the river as well and Obst turned up 
/ 
for trip aces. Grapenthien couldn't peel a diamond among his hole cards and conceded the pot.
