Jun Obara

Jun Obara called from the button and Calvin Lee checked in the big.

On the 6 5 J flop, Lee led for 50,000 and Obara made the call.

Action slowed on the 9 turn. Once the dealer flipped over the Q on the river, Obara counted out a 150,000 bet, and Lee moved all in.

Obara plucked off his time banks, and sat while his rail and other onlookers watched in suspense.

He eventually flipped his cards as he threw in a single chip to make the call:

Jun Obara: Q 5

Calvin Lee: T 8

Obara saw the bad news as Lee had rivered a straight, besting his two-pair.

Obara was understandably disappointed but congratulatory towards Lee, as he gave him respect and went to collect over $157,000, his best Korean career-cash to date.
