O'Donnell Dips Below a Million

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Anderson Ireland limped the button and Matt O'Donnell raised to 120,000 with Ireland making the call. They saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and O'Donnell check-called a bet of 100,000 from Ireland.

The turn brought the {q-Hearts} and O'Donnell checked it over to Ireland again, who fired a hefty bet of 300,000, sending O'Donnell into the tank. After a couple of minutes, he counted out the call.

On the {5-Spades} river, the action went check-check and Ireland revealed {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} for two pair, queens and tens, and O'Donnell sent his hand into the muck.

Ireland Gets Some Back

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 0 ante

Anderson Ireland has taken down the first two sizeable pots after the break to give himself some breathing room against Matt O'Donnell.

In the first one, O'Donnell opened to 150,000 and Ireland flatted. The flop came down {5-Clubs}{10-Spades}{j-Clubs} and O'Donnell check-called a bet of 200,000. The {10-Hearts} hit the turn and both checked to see the {7-Hearts} on the river.

Two more checks saw Ireland claim the pot tabling the {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}.

The next one saw Ireland limp-call a raise to 150,000 with a {k-Hearts}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop fanning out. O'Donnell bet 150,000 and Ireland called to see the {7-Diamonds} hit the turn.

Both players checked to bring the {3-Spades} on the river and O'Donnell check-folded to a bet of 300,000.
