Ospina's A-OK!

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Daniel Ospina had taken a bit of a hit to his stack after the dinner break, but he's still cruising with 18,500 in chips after taking out another player.

The action folded around to an opponent in middle position who raised preflop; the hijack player reraised, only to see Ospina four-bet from the small blind. The middle position capped it, the hijack folded and Ospina called, before check-calling him on the flop of {J-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}.

On the turn of the {A-Clubs}, Ospina led out and his opponent called all-in, showing {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a gut-shot straight draw, trailing Ospina's {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. The {A-Clubs} put Ospina even further in front and the {3-Spades} bricked out on the river, sealing the player's fate.

As the Ancient Roman prophet Fredericus Mercurio once proclaimed, "Another hath bitten the bust."
