O'Dwyer Hits a Colossal Wall

Nível 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Senol Ardic raised to 21,000 from middle position and Steve O'Dwyer called from the cutoff. Daniel Koloszar, who had multiplied his chips several times since the end of bubble play, made a three-bet to 85,000 from the button and only O'Dwyer called.

The flop of 3♦7♠10♠ was checked by both players before O'Dwyer led out for 50,000 chips on the 7♣ turn. Koloszar made the call and O'Dwyer checked the subsequent 6♠ river.

Koloszar responded by going all in, covering the 185,000 chips O'Dwyer had remaining in his stack. The high-roller regular then spent a few minutes in the tank before putting in a stack of calling chips. Kolszar showed O'Dwyer the bad news by tabling his 10♥10♦ for a full house, while O'Dwyer had tried to catch a bluff with 8♠8♦.

O'Dwyer sought the exit while Koloszar's resurgence continued.

Kubanychbek Abakirov: A♥K♥
Dario Sammartino: J♦J♠

Abakirov was racing for his tournament life, but Sammartino stayed in front on the 7♦5♥4♣2♥10♣ board to send Abakirov to the rail and his stack above 2,000,000.
