O'Double Up for Arneodo

Julien Arneodo

On the button and the short stack, Julien Arneodo shoved in for 430,000. Small blind Eoghan O'Dea quickly made the call as Lacay ducked out from the small blind. Arneodo tabled {A-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}, and he was racing for his tournament life against the baby pair, {4-Clubs} {4-Hearts}.

One card at time, the dramatic dealer ran out a flop of {K-Clubs}... {7-Diamonds}... {J-Diamonds}.

Half of the room erupted with, "Jack! Jack!" as their man had taken a big lead and was looking good to double up. The other half of the room was yelling for a four, but their cries would not be answered. The turn and river were blanks for O'Dea, and he's sent a double up over to Arneodo.

Arneodo - 1,020,000
O'Dea - 2,600,000
