O'Brien Finds a Call

Level 27 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

In early position, Matthew O'Brien opened to 60,000, and he called a 190,000-chip three-bet from Jamil Wakil in the small blind. They were heads-up to the {A-Clubs} {10-Hearts} {J-Hearts} flop, and it went check-check to the {5-Hearts} turn. When Wakil checked to him a second time, O'Brien took his cue to fire 268,000 at the pot. Wakil called that bet, but he was presented with another big one on the river. O'Brien liked the {Q-Spades} enough to make a big bet of 1 million straight, and that sent Wakil deep into the tank. It would be at least five or seven minutes before the call came.

O'Brien tabled {3-Hearts} {4-Hearts} for the baby flush, and it was good. That big pot gets pushed to O'Brien's corner, and with it comes a big swing in the chip stacks. The players are just stepping away for a break, so we'll get some hard counts for you right now.
