Obrestad Over Meltzer

With 825 in the pot and a flop of {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs}, Alan Meltzer bet pot from the hijack and was called by Annette Obrestad in the cutoff. When the {6-Spades} hit the turn, Meltzer again bet pot, this time 2,475, and Obrestad called behind. The {10-Diamonds} on the river double paired the board and made things interesting.

Meltzer thought for a moment before betting 7,425. Obrestad then thought equally long before putting in a raise to 15,000. Meltzer seemed to know he was in trouble and reluctantly released his hand.
