O'Brien Scores Big Double Up

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

When we saw Dan O'Brien bet out 34,000 on the turn from middle position with the board reading {2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} there was already close to 100,000 in the pot. Anthony Lellouche made the call from late position and the river came {7-Clubs}.

O'brien thought about it for a little while and eventually went all in for his last 171,000. Lellouche eventually made the call and O'Brien showed {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for the nuts. Lellouche mucked and O'brien is now a factor again with around 490,000 after the hand.
