Becker Doubles Through Obst
No-Limit Hold'em
James Obst raised to 40,000 out of the small blind and was called by Johannes Becker in the big blind. Both checked the 10♠9♦8♠ flop and Obst checked the 4♣ turn. Becker now bet 45,000 only for Obst to check-raise to 160,000, which Becker called after a few seconds of consideration.
The A♦ fell on the river and Obst almost immediately announced the all-in, sending Becker into agony. He counted the 575,000 behind and dropped a single chip in for the call after around one minute.
Becker already exposed his J♦10♦ for a pair of tens and Obst flung his cards towards the muck.
"Sorry, I have to see them," Becker said and other players also pointed out that the cards had to be shown according to the showdown roles. The K♠5♥ of Obst were briefly exposed before he paid off the double to Becker.
