Mike Dobbs

We caught up to the heads up action on the turn on the Q♥️4♣️3♠️2♥️ board. Eric Phan checked and Mike Dobbs bet 26,000 into a main pot of about 50,000 and Phan check-raised to 52,000. 

With the action back on Dobbs he made it 92,000 and Phan moved all in. Dobbs snap called for 189,500 turning over 6♥️5♥️ for the nut straight with a flush draw. 

Phan saw the bad new turning over A♣️5♣️ and his wheel was drawing dead. The 2♠️ river card sealed the deal for Dobbs to earn him the pot and the massive double up. 

Mike Dobbs- 430,000 
Eric Phan- 130,000
