O'Dwyer Snatches the Lead with Late Double
Level 10
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
When we arrived at the table, Steve O'Dwyer was all in for 95,200 on the 
flop. There was already a healthy amount of chips in the middle, and his opponent, David Dayan, was in the tank. After a little bit of thought, Dayan made the call.
"Ace high," announced O'Dwyer before turning up the 
for just ace high, as he stated.
Dayan tabled the 
and was ahead, but looking to dodge over cards and some other backdoor draws.
The turn was the 
to add a straight draw for O'Dwyer, and then the 
smacked down on the river to give him the winner. Finishing with a pair of queens, O'Dwyer, a former winner of the EPT Grand Final Main Event, won the pot and shot up over 300,000 in chips.
Dayan was clipped back to about 125,000.
