O'Dwyer Gets Some Back
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jules Dickerson opened to 10,000 from middle position and received calls from Steve O'Dwyer in the hijack and Maher Nouira in the big blind.
All three players checked the 8♠4♥4♣ flop leading to the 3♣ turn. Nouira checked, O'Dwyer bet 13,000, Dickerson called and Nouira folded.
On the 8♥ river Dickerson checked and O'Dwyer bet 32,000. Dickerson put in a check-raise to 64,000 and after about 25 seconds of consideration O'Dwyer put in the call.
Dickerson could only show Q♣9♣ for a missed flush draw turned into a bluff while O'Dwyer tabled 7♦7♠ for two pair, eights and sevens to take down a nice pot towards the end of Day 1.
