Did He Have It?
John O'Shea continues his journey in his attempt to repeat or better his feat of a 17th place finish at EPT London this year. We just caught up with a hand that left his opponent wondering, "did he have it?"
There was a limp in early position and this caused a chain reaction when two other people limped in behind him. John O'Shea was sat in the small blind and he didn't feel like playing follow the leader and instead raised to 2,000. Two people came along for the ride. The original limper from early position and the button.
The flop was and O'Shea lead out with a bet of 3,750. The early position limper called and the button folded. The turn was the bringing a flush draw onto the board and the pot was now ~18,000. O'Shea checked this time and his opponent made a bet of 4,500. O'Shea took his time and then counted out a raise making it another 10,000 more for his opponent to call. His opponent went deep into the tank and eventually made the call. The river was the hitting a potential flush and O'Shea dumped the rest of his chips over the line. His opponent's body actions showed the table that he was not happy with the move. He asked for a count and then finally folded.
