Ray D was bemused/confused/very critical of some of Obst's play in that event.
I played him in mixed games and limit games MTTs before BF and watched some of his videos for those games on RIO. It is ridiculous that RIO considers those elite videos you have to pay $100/month to watch. He plays limit games like an Internet kid and an Australian. I don't think those games are spread live in Australia. He plays those games like an aggressive NLHE Internet player, which can make him dangerous despite the technical errors. I was surprised, however, that he had so much success in those games at this WSOP.
