O'Dwyer Checks Back Trips
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Heads-up in a blind versus blind battle, Steve O'Dwyer bet 6,000 on a flop of A♣9♥6♣ and Juan Pardo called.
The turn came the A♦ and O'Dwyer bet 33,000. Pardo again called, then checked to O'Dwyer on the 3♣ river.
O'Dwyer paused for a moment before checking back. Pardo turned over J♥9♣ for two pair, but O'Dwyer had A♥Q♦ for trip aces to take the pot.
