Skarparis Sends Obeid to the Rail
Georgios Skarparis hasn't been in his seat for too long, but the Warm Up Champion has already almost doubled up his stack and eliminated a player.
Skarparis raised from early position to 1,300 and Joseph Houayek called from the small blind. Ghassan Obeid then squeezed from the big blind to 5,600, which only Skarparis called.
On the A♥Q♠4♦ flop, Obeid fired out a continuation-bet of 4,000, which Skarparis quickly called.
A 5♥ dropped on the turn and Obeid continued his aggression with a bet of 12,000, then Skarparis shoved. Obeid had around 60,000 behind and after just a few seconds, he put them all into the middle.
Ghassan Obeid: A♦J♦ 
Georgios Skarparis: A♠5♠
Obeid's top pair was no good, and it behooved him to connect with the river to stay alive. However, the 6♠ wasn't what he needed, and he was eliminated as Skarparis jumped up to around 190,000.
