When we arrived at the table, Steve O'Dwyer was all in for 95,200 on the {10-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop. There was already a healthy amount of chips in the middle, and his opponent, David Dayan, was in the tank. After a little bit of thought, Dayan made the call.

"Ace high," announced O'Dwyer before turning up the {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} for just ace high, as he stated.

Dayan tabled the {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and was ahead, but looking to dodge over cards and some other backdoor draws.

The turn was the {K-Diamonds} to add a straight draw for O'Dwyer, and then the {Q-Hearts} smacked down on the river to give him the winner. Finishing with a pair of queens, O'Dwyer, a former winner of the EPT Grand Final Main Event, won the pot and shot up over 300,000 in chips.

Dayan was clipped back to about 125,000.
