A Couple with O'Rourke

Liam O'Rourke, who finished second in the 2012 ANZPT Sydney Main Event, has been fairly active over at his table. We recently watched him play a couple of small back-to-back hands that played out like this.

  • An early position player opened up the pot to 600. O'Rourke called out of the small blind, along with Billy Argyros in the big blind. All three players checked on the {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop. When the dealer turned over a {2-Clubs} turn, O'Rourke led for 775 and both his opponents folded as he raked in the pot.
  • The very next hand and another early position player would be opening it up, this time to 550. The player in the hijack made the call and it was on to O'Rourke from the button. He would three-bet to 1,700 - an amount which would prompt both of his opponents to fold.
