Imagine if Reuben had 55 here. Imagine what an amazing call this would have been by Annette. We could talk about her incredible abilities to read her opponents in live game situations.

In some alternate reality, he did have 55 this hand, and therefore Annette is an even more incredible player in that reality. It's amazing to think that we're actually underestimating her abilities in our reality.

From the button, Reuben made it 52,000 to go and was reraised by Annette, who kicked it to 190,000; Peters just called and the flop came {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}.

After some thought, Obrestad led out with a 230,000 bet and Peters countered with a big bet of his own - he moved all in.

Annette went into the tank for quite some time - at one point even getting out of her seat to examine her chip stack. She sipped several drinks from a bottle of water before eventually making the call. At the showdown, Annette showed {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}, while Reuben showed {A-Spades}{10-Hearts} for top pair, top kicker.

The turn and river filled out {4-Clubs}, {3-Hearts} and before declaring an official winner, Lee Jones and the tournament staff checked and rechecked the chip stacks to be certain Peters had Obrestad covered. After the count was made official, Lee Jones declared Reuben Peters the 2007 EPT Dublin Main Event Champion.
