O'Dwyer Picks Off Vieira, Sending Him to the Rail

Level 17 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Joao Vieira

Joao Vieira raised to 80,000 in the hijack and was called by Steve O'Dwyer in the cutoff.

The duo checked the {4-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop, but on the {10-Clubs} turn business picked up in a big way.

Vieira checked and O'Dwyer bet 130,000. After using a time bank, Vieira moved all in for 925,000 which sent O'Dwyer deep into the tank.

He dropped his stack of time bank cards in front of his chips, took off his hat, undid his ponytail, then leaned back in his chair and began to think as he ran his fingers through his hair, stopping briefly only to tug at his beard while he pondered his decision.

The dealer peeled time bank cards away from him one by one until O'Dwyer finally called with his stack slightly covering Vieira's.

His call was a good one. He showed {k-Spades}{q-Spades} for a pair of queens, while Vieira showed {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for a flush draw with an overcard.

The dealer dropped the {9-Diamonds} on the river, sealing Vieira's fate and sending a large pot to O'Dwyer
