O'Neil Gets Sticky

ClaudioElizalde

Niveau 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

On a board reading 10♦3♠4♥, the big blind checked and Chris O'Neil placed a bet of 85,000. The big blind then raised to 230,000 and O'Neil made the call.

When the turn came the 7♦, the big blind bet for 300,000 and was called again by O'Neil.

The river brought the 7♣ and the big blind slowed down with a check. O'Neil assembled a bet for the majority of his chips and slid out 395,000, which was called by the big blind.

O'Neil quickly announced a seven and tabled 7♥6♥, scooping the pot with trips.
