Vladimir Schemelev

Pot-Limit Omaha

James Obst opened for 12,000 only to have Vladimir Schemelev, who finished runner-up in this event back in 2010, three-bet the pot to 45,000 from the button. Brandon Shack-Harris then flatted from the big, Obst called, and three players saw a flop of {a-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Shack-Harris checked, Obst bet the pot of 108,000, and Schemelev moved in for 108,500. Shack-Harris folded and Obst called the additional 500.

Schemelev: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Obst: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}

Obst was ahead with a set, but Schemelev had plenty of draws. One of them was a straight draw, which came in when the {K-Clubs} appeared on the turn. The {5-Spades} failed to pair the board on the river, and Schemelev more than doubled.
