Actually to be fair though those are 2 different situations. For one Maul was egotistic and this allowed Obi-Wan to get the better of him. Obi-wan was able to pull a move that actually surprised Maul because Maul's ego didn't allow him to see the potential in that move. And it was a quick move too, which allowed Obi-wan to pull it off in the first place.
Anakin on the other hand didn't have that luxury because Obi-Wan knew what was going on and he knew the situation he was in. It allowed Obi-wan to counter Anakin's moves the same as Maul should have only Obi-wan was in the zone where Maul wasn't.
