Steve O'Dwyer Eliminated

Level 7 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

With a three-way flop of {4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and 32,000 in the middle, Kitson Kho checked out of the big blind and Jean-Noel Thorel bet 9,000 from under the gun. Steve O'Dwyer raised to what appeared to be 33,000 and Kho folded. Thorel moved all in and the call of O'Dwyer followed in a heart beat.

Jean-Noel Thorel: {3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Steve O'Dwyer: {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}

The bottom two pair of Thorel were ahead, and the {5-Diamonds} turn and {2-Clubs} river didn't change the outcome of the hand anymore. Thorel doubled for 117,000 and O'Dwyer was left with three big blinds.

In the next hand, O'Dwyer shoved for his last 11,500 and Kho called out of the small blind.

Steve O'Dwyer: {J-Spades}{6-Spades}
Kitson Kho: {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}

The board came up blank, showing {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, and O'Dwyer will have to re-enter in order to claim a portion of the prize pool.
