Brandon Novena raises preflop and Annette Obrestad defends in position.
The flop falls K-Q-8 rainbow and both players check. The turn brings an ace and Novena shoves all-in. Obrestad snap-calls and shows [JdTd] for a Broadway straight, aka the nuts.
Novena turns over [Qh8h] for a flopped two pair and fails to improve when the river brings a ten. Obrestad takes the pot and Novena is eliminated.
Annette Obrestad – 930,000 (116 big blinds)
Brandon Novena – eliminated in 30th place ($19,344)
