David "ODB" Baker: / 
�� Folded
David Baker completed. James Obst and Eric Kurtzman both called. Obst bet fourth street, and both Baker and Kurtzman called. On fifth, Obst bet again, but this time, Baker folded. Kurtzman called, though. Both players checked on sixth street. On seventh, Kurtzman bet, and Obst went deep into the tank.
"What did you think of that seven?" Obst asked.
"Oh yeah," Kurtzman said. "That seven is good. It beats your eight. I don't think you paired your eight either, because I have two of them."
"Well, I'm just confused at this point," Obst said. After giving the hand some more thought, he scooped up his cards and folded. Kurtzman extended well into the lead after the hand, while Baker slipped further.
