Steve O'Dwyer Doubles Through Niall Farrell

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Steve O'Dwyer
Steve O'Dwyer

Niall Farrell raised from early position to 45,000. Steve O'Dwyer called from the button, as did Erik Seidel from the big blind. The flop was {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}. Both Seidel and then Farrell checked to O'Dwyer, who bet 110,000. Seidel folded quickly, but Farrell looked like hew as going to be sticking around.

After a while he announced all in, covering his opponent's stack. O'Dwyer pulled a perplexed looking face.

"I haven't played much poker over the last few weeks," he said, "So I'm just going to..." he made an action with his hands and contemplated his decision.

In the end he called and tabled {8-Spades}{7-Spades} for a pair of eights, and was ahead of Farrell's flush draw and over cards with {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. The turn was the {6-Spades} and the river the {10-Spades} giving O'Dwyer the double up. "Wrong order," remarked Farrell.

"That was a dirty double up!" exclaimed tablemate Nick Petrangelo. With this hand O'Dwyer moved up over 1,000,000 in chips.
