Obadia Gets There to Leave Normand Short
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Jose Obadia opened 2,600 in early position before Frederic Normand three-bet 8,800 from a couple of spots to his left. The action folded back around to Obadia as he made the call.
The dealer spread a flop of Q?J?2? and Obadia announced a pot-sized bet before Normand shoved the rest of his chips across the line. Obadia had 22,500 total and quickly made the call.
Jose Obadia: A?K?Q?8? 
Frederic Normand: A?A?6?3?
Obadia flopped a pair and a gutshot against Normand's aces and he picked up a flush draw on the 6? turn. The 8? river improved Obadia to two pair to drag the pot as he thanked Normand.
